Hi Simon,

Thanx for the help :)


The ADSL connected server currently runs on 196.210.176.x, and the
internet connected server runs on 196.34.136.109

So, there's not on the same subnets, by a mile. In fact, the 2 servers
are seperated by about 30Km's, but I can get into both via the
interner.

Would ipforwarding still work, since I want to reroute all packets on
eth0 of 196.34.136.109 in, and back out?
