[ILUG] portal setup require help ASAP !!!

[Anil Kamath]

Hi stephen,

thanks for the response.

I am planning to use IPCOP but i have some more queries. How do i go about
configuring ipcop to initiate the connection to the ISP. I can set my DSL
modem as a bridge.

2) Is there a good link wherein i can get to know how to configure IPCOP. I
just ran thru a few docs on the IPCOP website but it doesnt give me all i
need to configure . Since i need to use 3 Network Adapters for the
configuration.

I need to know how to actually initiate the connection to the ISP thru IPCOP
and how will my private LAN communicate with the DMZ incase i plan to put
the DNS web and mail in the DMZ.

please provide me some more help.
