You said: Unless you get into Michaels Virtual Server stuff you will need a specific public IP for each private IP you are going to translate. Ok, no problem for the public IP address, but what about aliasing? It works if this public address is one created with the Linux IP aliasing module? In other words, I've got the IP numbers, but I haven't got the machines for use the public address: so i thought to use IP aliasing to use more address on one NIC. Using this trick I can assign x (max 256) IP address to one network card. But I can't use Linux IP masquerading on a aliased address (that's my problem). The question is: is it possible to use an aliased IP address to masquerade internal private IPs using NAT? Ennio Porro
