my private IP that eventually resolves to public IP through PIX is
different then coming from my other public IP that assigned on my fxp1
that comes from another ISP, the fxp1 IP already configured this way
so it pass everything to my box

what i've tried is adding route on my box

route add 216.112.241.24 216.112.241.25 255.255.255.248

still not go:(
