    | I suspect that your new setup should be:
    |
    | I\ +--------> e.f.g.h
    | N| +--------> e.f.g.h+1
    | T| +------------+ +--------> e.f.g.h+2
    | E+-----------+ ADSL Modem +------+--------> e.f.g.h+3
    | R| +------------+ +--------> e.f.g.h+4
    | N| +--------> e.f.g.h+5
    | E| +--------> e.f.g.h+6
    | T/ +--------> etc
    |
    |
    | In other words your SuSE 9.1 should no longer be 10.0.0.1 but e.f.g.h
    | and further I suspect you need to configure it "manually" and no longer
    | via DHCP.
    |
    | Also note that you are now directly accesable from the internet, (no
    | longer behind a Nat/FIREWALL) so you NEED to start a firewall on SuSE
    | 9.1!

    You should get a cheap hardware based firewall or even better set up an
    old PII 300 with IPCop. Then do port forwarding. This way you only need
    1 of those static IP's. I hope you didn't pay too much for them all!

    When I was doing something similar for my business I registered a full
    domain with a dynamic dns service and just used the IP that was assigned
    via dhcp to my router. Then I ran my own mail and webserver. This only
    cost me about $30/year for the domain reg and use of dyn-dns. I've
    recently moved to a web hosting company that hosts my site for $50/year
    plus gives me email, mailing lists, mysql database, etc. I just can't
    rely on my ISP to keep my connection up anymore, and as I'm trying to
    run a business, my web and email need to be accessible.
