	Route the network: 90.91.92.16/28 to your BSD machine: 90.91.92.2
	Also, Make sure that the router ethernet interface has a .252
	subnet mask or you will have problems.

	Depends on what they are doing...but it should be sufficient.

	On another side note, I would seriously look at splitting off your
	DMZ to another network...but, of course, it's your ass not mine.
