The server is static IP = 10.0.010 and is the only Linux machine, all others on the LAN are Windoze DHCP addressed. The router has a real-world static IP from my ISP. I have a NAT entry in the router to send all port 80 traffic to 10.0.0.10

All clients are different flavors of Windoze, so no can do(?)

The DNS server for all machines is the ISP's (at the moment)
