You really have two options getting icq to work like this; one is to install a SOCKS proxy on your router, and the other is to use the ip_masq_icq module for the kernel (which isn't in the official kernel iirc, you have to download it separately and compile it yourself). Debian has a few socks proxies packaged if you do an apt-cache search for it. hth as always, nick [EMAIL PROTECTED] * http://www.fargus.net/nick Developer - Systems Engineer - Mad System Guru - MOO Sales he picks up scraps of information/he's adept at adaptation because for strangers and arrangers/constant change is here to stay
