Lime is a wired router (we have another wireless one) - it connects to the
internet via a usb modem and via a crossover cable to the wireless router
(victoria) , which then connects to a hub - and then to chinatown. The two
routers are v. old P1 compaqs, and chinatown is a p1 AST machine.

I think you can do port forwarding quite easily on lime, and it's documented
in the freebsd handbook, but (as I said) I'm just too busy right now.

ok , whatever you think best, but it would be handy for me to learn what
you've done (so I can repeat it if I have to).

;-) don't worry, I'm sure it'll be fine.

I don't read mail at chinatown at the moment, but I was going to install
MUTT as soon as I get my new computer. Feel free to install whatever you
need.

>Well, thanks for replaying really fast :-).

That's the problem with being busy, If I don't do it now, it will never
happen!
