Where are you trying to test it from? If you are tying to test it from your inside network, that is your problem. Routing gets messy when doing that, and its generally considered not a Good Idea(tm). Try from a connection outside the network for testing. If you dont have a box you can do that with, Im sure there are many people who can help on the list or on the IRC channel. Jay
