[NTLUG:Discuss] which tool to do the job with

[Greg E]

I guess I shouldn't say this couldn't be a workable solution since the only
access problems come from IE and Netscape on Windows which will NEVER provide
server duties.  Windows is only good for a workstation IMHO duties.  My Linux
boxes are not having any problems getting out.  I've got my internal boxes
useing my outworld server setup as their default gateway and my outworld
server using my pipeline as it's default gateway.  This is working fine.
For the moment I've got the Windows box (IP) setup to be masqueraded but I
do from a script after I boot.  When I decide on a final solution I'll set
it up as part of init.

Inbound services immediate needs are DNS and mail.  Comming soon web.  I 
don't have any plans for ftp or telnet but that may change.
