[olug] DNS & NAT examples needed

[Curtis LaMasters]

I may not fully understand what you want but I would replace the Linksys
with something that does load balancing for your hosts behind (pfSense comes
to mind), setup UDP/53 (DNS) to round robin between your two (I assume
you'll have two) DNS servers and setup host header based web access on
TCP/80.  What other services will you be offering?
