incideagent, I'm not sure about the logic of putting the solaris box in from of the linksys. IMO, the linksys is less likely to be susceotible to you making a mistake in it's config thus is is more logical to place the linksys first.... You can port forward any ports you want to the solaris box and have it handle it. That way the least risky box is in front and the more risky is limited to what can be sent to it......

Just my opinion......
