Hi there Brandon,

I lost Bill's original message, so if you don't mind, I will tag this
response on to yours <g>

 There is one other very important piece of info needed, that Bill needs
 to get, before all of this. He has to make sure Verizon does not block
 ports 25, 80, and 53, so he can use a mail/web/DNS server to begin with.
