Hello, All.

Well, I'm happy to report that I got the virtual networking to work, with the 
Crossbow virtual routers, etherstubs, etc. to do all the port forwarding to the 
various zones via our limited number of static IP Addresses.  Glory be to our 
holy God!!!

And surprisingly enough, it really is not all that complex.  

I don't have it fully implemented yet, but if all continues to go well, this 
should all work the Solaris way.  (As opposed to just making a Solaris server 
the Linux way.)

I'll try to write up something for the wiki, as Stefan requested.  Like I said, 
though, I think when it's done, someone more knowledgeable than me should 
probably review it.

This makes me real happy!!!

I wanted to take our network to a higher level.  I had no idea when I started 
this process that it would come to this!

Thanks again, everyone, for all of your help and advice.

Peter, hieromonk
