ahh.....you are correct. Sorry....


hmm.....let's see....

if blah.monkeydance.com points to real.ip.addy,

then there are a few ways to do this. Probably the easiest would be to NFS mount the 
www directory from the internal box onto the external box and serve it that way.

the best way though would probably be to use port forwarding to get to the internal
address.

dunno.....sorry I was confused earlier
