for dealing with accessing a real file server (which
talks IL) over the internet (particularly through NAT
boxes), can't one use a cpu server running trampoline
via listen on the fs tcp ports to forward on to the
fs over IL? that's assuming you can set up a cpu
server at the same location as the fs, of course. but
it'd also eliminate the problems with only having one
ip addr, as the only one you'd need would be for the
cpu server. you can give the fs some dummy addr, on
10.x or whatever.

i *think* i've done this, and had it work, but that
setup has been disasembled and shipped to various
parts of the world, so this is from memory. my
current setup allows me to use an IP per box.
