<div>Following the instructions on the web page exactly will set you up
in no time. All you need to do is set up all your clients to use
dhcp and sygate will do the rest... not only that but the
default tcp/ip setting are right so there is no clients side
configuration. From what I understand it is a port of ip masq to
the windoze platform.</div>

<div>The only problem is that it isn't free, but a devious person might
be able to find a copy out on the internet somewhere.</div>
