This is where I need better argumentation...if you can help, it would be appreciated. Specific examples of why it's a bad idea, security problems that could occur, other issues...unfortunately, this configuration has been handed to me, it's not my idea, so I need to understand what's wrong with it and be able to offer sound arguments for the more conventional approach, if there's is a really sound technical reason for not doing it this way. I'm also dealing with the fact that another Linux box, a mail server, has been moved on to this new FIOS lan and configured using the hack that I cited in my original post, and is working quite nicely - unfortunately, I don't clearly understand how to implement that hack on Fedora, but, I'm getting the "if Jack could do this with his Debian box, why can't you with your Fedora?"....

The bes argument for not doing it this way is "Why make things more complicated then they need to be."
