Thanks Lanny and everyone else. Sorry for the late reply back. Don't
want anyone to think that I do not appreciate the help. I work nights
and just got in.
I didn't know that IPCOP could run on one that old. I have one like
that up in the attic, time to bring it back down. Before I upgraded to
5.3, I was running 4.7 with FireStarter and did not have any troubles.
As soon as I get some sleep I will be looking in to setting it up.
Thanks again everyone for the advice.
Lee Perez
