Thanks Michael…

All firewalls, spi, etc. in the modem have been turned off.  Still no packets at all from the gateway.  Iptables off also.  Also, very strange, not a single spam packet on the F9 screen.  The only thing that appears are the packets from my forwarding partners. Maybe I should just be thankful and leave it at that, but that’s not my nature <g>.
