So, it should work and it didn't.              If you only have one interface, the default nowdays is to configure it       as external. You configure it yourself as internal when you trust the       LAN router and firewall to internet. It is your choice to define the       network interface as external or internal. No, the system does not set       up an interface as internal just because it is connected to the internal       LAN. You do that, not the system. You tell the firewall what to do.              --       Cheers,        Carlos E.R.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
