    Susan,

    Thanks for the reply. From your response it appears that the SBS server can
    not serve a scope for both the DMZ / Perimeter LAN in front of the SBS
    server and the internal LAN behind the SBS server, or did I misunderstand
    your reply?

    If I place the AP outside of my PIX, between the PIX and DSL modem, I wind
    up burning another routeable IP. I was hoping to avoid that as I only have 5
    static IPs and do not have one to spare at the moment. I could obtain
    additional IPs but that would require renumbering which I can handle if
    necessary.

    Thanks for your pointer to the reference material as I am considering in the
    future running some wireless workstations on the internal LAN, but first I
    need to solidify the design for offering public access for wireless users in
    the lobby.

    thx! ~ bill
