So far, appealing to my target group, as we've been in the same places and that change is not only good but possible. Remember on the Caldera List when I was wayward@xxxxxxxxxxx? Well, I'm just wayward4now and can improve. That's a marked advance in my personal philosophies, from then, according to my perspectives. > For what it's worth, some modems will need special configuration to pass > an incoming connection through, some don't.

This one, a Westtell 6000 series, can be set to any number of ports to pass to my server, so it acts as a firewall as well. This is better than beating on my server and routes and all of that stuff I was trying to do. I gave up fighting it and found how to get along with it, now I am happy. I got one helluva education by it. I thank you for your patience!! It's tough when you think you have a grasp on a subject and find it doesn't work the way you feel it ought. Or, it does work, but only half-assed.
