Naturally i could expect all data to go back through the device with that corresponding IP , atleast that is what happens according to ethereal _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
