Mike,
Thanks for the reply. No, not so obvious to me about the VPN! :-)
Anyway I was afraid of that response regarding ICMP traffic / PING but I'm
dealing with a request to make it happen. I know that doesn't overcome
reality most of the time.
A VPN is out of the question.
What if I set up a route from a specific external IP address to a specific
internal IP address?
Oh! I found a setting that will do exactly that under: "Firewall" ......
Thanks,
Fred
