I want to choose the former. I am offering  my ADSL to my house-mates
via a
wireless lan connected to my firewall with a fourth interface (not drawn
in
my first mail) and I don't want thost users on my private-net (it can be
filtered out, but why doing it the hard way?).
Does someone know a program, that can relay udp-broadcasts?
