my unix box is router so i have 192.168.1.0/24 aswell :)

goody, if you want some of us to connect to your mbse we need a staticly ip
to find you, or atleast a staticly hostname :)

if this was not your plan you can run as client as you do now :)

do you make dns settings your self ?

 BP >> is www.skynetbbs.org setup in your apache to point to the same dir 
 BP >> as skynetbbs.org ?
 BP >> in apache this is done with serveralias token :)

you have found it ?

 DG>>> It's a silly page i guess.
 BP >> i don't say your page is silly, it kind of nice page imho
 DG> Really? ;) well it was inspired by my 15 yr old sis who said hey do a

all arond the

 DG> dorky huh?.

yep :)

 DG> PS: Delted bbs.rafastd.org from my DNS so now it's all ready ready
