My first time here, and i may be able to help, i ran across a way to limit access to only MY network, from ppp clients. we have 1 cisco to the net, in it i have to program ip routing for each 'block' of 'c' nets assigned to us, one at a time, one time i put one of the nets in wrong and the symptom was that a ppp client, could only see services within my network, and could not see anything past my router on the internet. could this solve your problem? by assigning a static ip to your client of a non-routed class c net, it would accomplish what you want i think... -- Mike Lester Galaxy Star Systems mlester@galstar.com
