HI all,
I am getting there...Brian told me how to ppp -alias to allow my LAN 
to route out.  They do have static c class IPs though.
is ppp -alias still whats needed in this situation?
For a small 20 box LAN do I need named running or will a hosts file 
do?
With ppp -alias  can a remote internet machine Ping in to a box on my 
LAN? I suspect not.
Should I run squid as well? I know its a proxy server and so should 
save bandwidth no?
Thanks for your patience and help...you have gotten me a LONG way 
down the bsd track...2 weeks ago I had 2 CDs a box and a very large 
question mark  ; ^  )
Thanks
