Do away with a full suit and go with a tank top and shorts suit complete with space flip flops? I always like using my bare hands anyway.

you decided to use Linux which not very common For hosting multiple web/email servers, I'd say it's very common to use anything of the Linux flavor unless you like patching things weekly. By the way, it was working fine at my previous residence. I paid extra for 5 static IP addresses and just entered that info into each machine (Windows and Linux) and everything was fine. Now, I'm at another location so I just transferred the account here, about 15 miles away, and they're saying that I need a PPPoE dialer to connect and that there's no way I should have been able to connect with the way I was setup? Give me a break!
damn your a spoiled brat. Hey, a little consistency is nice. I could use Linux at one place but not at another? Anyway, I talked to a PAID tech support person that actually knew what he was talking about. He even had an American accent, it's nice to see that they didn't layoff all the techs in America. He suggested getting a router that can actually handle multiple IP addresses. Until then, even if I ran IIS on 4 computers, my router would be only be able to forward port 80 packets to one IP.
Bottom line, it turned out to not even be a Linux issue. The info to fix my problem was in their computers but the outsourced techs couldn't ask the right questions to figure it out. Now that I think of it, not 1 of the outsourced techs even asked how my network was configured. I guess I get what SBC pays for.

Just got done going through about 5 people whose accent was so terrible that I couldn't understand what they were saying half the time. And my DSL/PPPoE/Linux problem is still not solved because they only want Windows and Mac using their version of the internet!
