a) Why do you think DHCP is required? As a real sys admin you should know that it's not.
b) When Mark said "outside", he didn't mean outside the building, he meant outside your corporate LAN, whose boundaries are not set by the bricks of AMA headquarters. They are set by network topology that, from what you've said, I'd hope you were familiar with.
c) If AMA's IT staff can't set aside even just one NAT'd IP for someone to use outside of their corporate LAN, it frightens me that they are my only insurance. Yes, they're a model organization, not an Internet company, but now they have an employee here talking about how un-easy it would be to set up, so I assume they have some sort of IT staff that (at least, think they) know something.
d) I don't read Model Aviation and I don't want it. I would consider it a gesture of good will on my part if the AMA would stop sending it to me and keep my dues the same. That'd save them money. I have enough clutter in my house as it is. |
