Hi people,
Yeah, I know this has become a controversial topic lately, but I hope we
could have a time frame of useful info before the flame-spiralling.
As many people, we are somewhat short on the IP adresses here. On the other
hand, most people would use only a few services. So the question is: which
options (and where) do exist for sharing the address(es) and what are their
advantages and limitations.
Ideally, I would like to have internal network (AFAIU 10.0.0.0 is
invented just for that) and have the requests to outside services to appear
as if from a normal address.

        Thank you in advance                   Genie
