I would like to offer to new clients the opportunity to download Explore and then to access the Web Pages on my server ONLY.. This way they get a taste for the Internet and we can pitch the service using glitzy Web pages and not just text. In order to do this it seems to me we have to create a restricted class or in some way turn off the ip forwarding for only this group of clients. I want those new clients who dial in to be able to view only those Web pages we offer at least until the become paying clients. Would probably set up an account Pfree with a password or none at all. Any Ideas on how to restrict a PPP account with BSDI ver 2.1? Thanks
