I forgot to mention that the FreeBSD box is also my firewall.. could I divide my subnet? Maybe have the netmask on the router be a netmask of 16 IP's and the netmask on my vr1 interface be 16 IP's? I suppose I could get another 224 network and have 32 IPs on the vr1 interface.. Of course then I would be loosing 4 IP's either way I go.. I suppose the easiest way to do it would be to use natd and forward the requests from the real IP's to the translated IP's, but I was trying to avoid that.. On 09-Jul-99 Justin C.
