Donno, I will check tommorow (I downloaded it so I'll try it on a 4-5
machines at work)

As I told you on the phone - my friend in Jerusalem is on the ADSL tests
- and they get a fixed normal IP (not 192.168.xxx.xxx or 10.xxx.xxx.xxx)
- and no filtering at all - this is for now.
When it will be fully operational - then it will be probably under NAT I
guess..
I Do hope that Bezeq will change their servers infrasture. It's running
on Windows NT server and it crashes almost daily!

When this will be operational (finished with testing) - probably not.
Why kill their chicken which lays golden eggs? :)
Regarding Linux support - as I told you - my friend who is in the
testing has already modified the PPTP client to work with Bezeq testing
equipment - so connection with Linux is a snap.
