Hello all,
 two things, could some tell me what ip #'s I should use in the below file
for remote and local host and why.
Background on our network:
        ###.###.###.1  = cicso router (hands out the ip #'s to macs
        ###.###.###.3  = mac web server that is static
        ###.###.###.5  = freebsd ppp server

        ###.###.###.100 to ###.###.###.160 = macs that get their random
                                             numbers from the cisco router
