I have DSL with access via one of those DSL modems. My ISP changes the DHCP address every other day - sometimes once a day. (Yes I am trying to workaround getting a $atic IP addre$$) I am using the PPOE software from www.roaringpenguin.com to connect the SuSE box to the internet. So far workstations can access the internet by pointing their browsers proxy setting to the SuSE internal nic (Squid is the current proxy server). ICQ works that way too. Now for other applications like ISP mail and news servers I am stumped. (A firewall is coming soon too.) I suspect that DNS has to be set up on the SuSE box but whose external DNS does zone transfers to me? Sort this out and help me. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------ Noah Hester |Chronic Insanity: Doing the same things nbh@apk.net |the same way but expecting change. _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com
