No. DNS doesn't help in this situation. But anyhow, DNS is reqired for Samb= a=20 to act as WINS server which could help. Can't remember exactly if wins itse= lf=20 was enough to enable dial-up browsing. I did the broadcast bimap with ipf (Darren Reeds IPFilter) (like "bimap tun= 0=20 192.168.1.255/32 -> 192.168.0.255/32" for ipnat.conf) =2DHarry > > I have no idea how to bimap a broadcast address along subnets!!!
