Hi,

I reckon your problem might be vaguely related to the solution I came
up with. I use my PB in a variety of LANs, where I am usually
assigned a single static IP address. So under Linux, I assigned an IP
alias from an internal network for the network interface and set up a
name server and IP forwarding. MOL was configured with a different
internal address, using Linux as a gateway.

Probably a whole internal network for one machine with two OSes is
kind of an overkill, but it was a simple matter of recompiling the
kernel for IP forwarding and downloading a few Debian packages. And
it has worked flawlessly ever since.

Regards, Jens.
