No routers.  Just a 1GB switch and the DSL modem.  The DSL modem is a router,
but do not know if the routing table stuff is only for redirecting WAN stuff
to internal 192 LAN addresses.  There is no manual for the damn thing.

I haven't had a modem attached to a system for a decade :-)

Looks like I'll have to start a nameserver and have it listed first in
resolv.conf so that I can have it point www.vidiot.com and vidiot.com to
the LAN address.
