If nothing else, I believe it is possible for a SOCKS implimentation for Windows workstations to be done at the winsock.dll level, isn't it?

Windows can go suck eggs as far as I'm concerned. I don't care about Windows. I don't care about MacOS, and I don't care about OS/2. I care about my lawnmower, and keeping my pop-tarts in a non-combustive state. Just wait 'til you get a taste for those strawberry sweeties and alzheimer's sets in. Poof, there goes your house. Don't say I didn't warn you.

This is silly. You'll call into your firewall, and call your toaster on a non-routed network from there. You're poptarts aren't going to call you; at worst, they will send a "help me! I'm burrrrniiinnng!" SNMP trap to the firewall, which will trap to you.

I'm worried about the k12 using an FBSD gateway, having zero network expertise. I want them to be able to push a button and then when they plug in their Apple ][e it just works.

Lets see you do this with Linux, which has "masquerading". 8-).

One reason for having masquerade is to allow you to offload shell processing load from the gateway. You are promptly putting that load back on. Garrett has his reasons for not liking masquerading, I have mine.

Fine, don't use it. I think it would be silly not to take advantage of it, once it is in place, however, since it will simplify your administrative burden.

There's the rub: it's not in place.
