I posted this thread http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=15477 in the lounge forum a couple of days ago, but so far no one has responded at all. Maybe I should have posted here first, but since it's not Knoppix I didn't want to be off topic. But now I'm coming to the group that should know networking. I would appreciate it if any of you who feel they understand Debian and Linux networking could take a look and respond if you have any insight. Thnaks.
