Is there any list of holes that I will encounter if I try and make my 
NetBSD box into a gateway?  I was also wondering if NetBSD is far enought 
along to make it into a machine that will be able to relogin to my isp.  
I have a static IP address but every so often my isp will disconnect me 
(I am using Vicom's Internet Gateway on a StarMax 4200 right now and it 
automatically will reestablish my connection).  I am very very very new 
at BSD and have a Mac IIcx which when I run the Vicom Internet Gateway is 
only able to provide about 1.4-2k max throughput while on the ppc it 
works at the maximum rate.  I want to know if a IIcx just won't go higher 
then the 2k or if I would be able to get that with a less bulky system 
like BSD.

Thanks for your help in advance,

Paul
