these are public addresses, publicably routable.  
even if i traceroute from one to another they
dont seem to "go out" of the dsl modem, but how
would I know for sure...

Actually to be more accurate
server 1.2.3.5 above is a linksys wireless station..
and one of the servers has another line to the internal 
network:

--dslmodem----switch                  
                |
                |
                |               |
                +---- linux ----+ 192.168.1.0/24
                |               |
                +---- router ---+  
                |               |
                |                        
                |                        
                +---- linux
 


i though it would be cool though if i could
telnet the servers to themselves on the outside
(routable ip's) since i usually ssh to one of these
servers and reach the other server from there.
i would also load them up with pop, nfs, and
so on to each other if i could do it safely.


thanks,

e pike
