Hi,

Still have some problems with multiple IP addresses. I''m thinking of
change one-to-one NAT to ProxyARP, but I have one question:

My Internal network is 192.168.1.1-192.168.1.x and my public addresses are
eg. 1.2.3.1 - 1.2.3.4

Firewall machine has two interfaces eth0 is internal network and has
address 192.168.1.1 and eth1 has address 1.2.3.1

I have three servers, two Linux servers (one firewall machine, one server
behind one-to-one NAT and one Windows server running under VMWare Server).
I also has Samba running on firewall machine.

I like to have Windows server behind ProxyARP and if it has external
address like 1.2.3.4 is it possible to use Windows File Sharing because
other internal machines has internal network addresses and Windows Server
has external addresses and is using ProxyARP?

I''m not so experienced to configure bind to use views, so proxyarp
sounds
much better.

Some hints or tips?
