Heya,
I've seemed to have practically disappeared from exsistance recently,
sorry.

Anyway, im soon to move house and having blueyonder installed.
I want to use (as the firewall) either a smoothie or try mandrakes
'multi network firewall' (MNF), but does anyone know how I'd set it
up? (in terms of the modem talkin to the firewall). I've been given
the impression its as simple as giving them (telewest) the mac
address and just configure the NIC for DHCP.

Is that right? Or do I need to setup username/password stuff to be
sent to the modem whenever I need to reconect?  Or anything like
that, and does smoothwall & MNF support the modem..

Thanks
SimonB
