Thanks Bret,
I even have an example of a firewall that takes the ip
address from
ifconfig so this is exactly what I need a way to start
the firewall
each time anyone on the network calls the ISP after an
ip address
is assigned. I was really confused proably because so
much of the
info is for people with cable modem connections.
Here is my ip-up file with the modification I think I
need to make
Is this the right place in the file to call the
firewall.
Thanks
Linda Hanigan
