Thank you for setting me on the right path John. For some reason, I
thought the ports were number right to left (thinking port 2 was
closest to the PCI slot. However, I learned something new today, it is
the other way around.

So now I have the DMZ port working with the 4FE-66 card.

Thanks for everyone patience with me on this one. Again, you just have
to got back the basics and think of what the simplest problem could
be.
