It seems to have in it a function called FindNewPortGroup that hunts for ports at random, but there's no discipline there to make it avoid specific ports or groups of ports. Are you suggesting that I modify this function to add port exclusion as a new feature? I suppose that I could do this, but it would involve changing data structures that were used by many programs, including natd and ppp. So, there could be a huge ripple effect. --Brett
