Because you guys never commited my change to tftpd to keep it from listening to the world. Yeah, I could mitigate the damage that could do by giving it a home directory with -h, but that's still not something I really feel comfortable doing. Then there's the issue of dhcpd listening to the outside as well. That's not a big deal since it won't answer for hosts it doesn't know about (unless you tell it to), but again, it's not something I feel entirely comfortable with. At least with seperate IP stacks, I can be *real* selective about what listens where. Also, I can run an outside DNS server and an inside DNS server, using seperate data files. The outside can't see anything about my internal network, which I like. Call me paranoid. - Dan C.
