Okay, here is the setup. --------- --------- ----------------- | LAN-B |-----| LAN-A |-----| Teh Internets | --------- --------- ----------------- I have a network, LAN-A for general-purpose use, including internet access. I want a more restricted LAN, LAN-B, that can also access the internet, but is firewalled and appears to LAN-A and the web as a single NAT address. This is your basic home Broadband/DSL router stuff, but here's where I am hitting a snag. I want to make all IP addresses on LAN-A unreachable by LAN-B. LAN-B can only access destinations *not* on the LAN-A subnet. I am currently doing this with a PC running Coyote Linux and while it works, I would like to use a small appliance rather than tie up a PC for this purpose. I have looked at a few routers and I think the last part is going to require re-flash of the firmware with either dd-WRT or Open-WRT, which I am not averse to doing. Does anyone know if those distros will do this, or if the Coyote Linux firewall has been ported to a commercial router (i.e. low cost)? - Mike Scott -- Linux Users Of Northern Illinois (Chicago) - Technical Discussion http://luni.org/mailman/listinfo/luni
