> From: Keith Moore <moore@cs.utk.edu> > that's an oxymoron. the basic premis of NAT is fundamnetally broken. Just out of interest, do you complain about gravity too? We lost our chance to avoid NAT's when variable length addresses were removed from TCPv2.5 (IIRC the version number correctly). NAT's are here, like it or not, and the only question is how to make lemonade out of them. Noel PS: Speaking of gravity, does anyone have a copy of that great hack CMU memo about how they were going to turn gravity off in the CS building on the weekend to help everyone move offices?
