Hrm..... okay... but what would I set as "address?" I need to request an address using
DHCP... my IPs aren't static..

Again... same problem... what would I use as "address"?

It would appear to have what I need, but I'm not sure I follow how I could do this? Do you
mean I should assign both IPs to the freebsd box and forward one of them? I'm not sure you
can do that... especially the way telus has their DHCP server setup (1 hostname per mac
address)
Thanks,
Gabe
