One question I do have is regarding IP masqurading and routing. Can I bind two IP addresses to the same >NIC and use it for both my internal traffic, and for my BA >connection? If I want to set up an internal LAN with a gateway to >BA must I have two NICs in my gateway machine?

Yes, you can, using IP aliasing. That said, it is not recommended for a firewall machine since single NIC firewalls are less secure. Have a look at George Toft's site, it has alot of good info about this. http://www.georgetoft.com Tim -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
