hmm not entirely sure what you mean...
the base server has private addresses and only the vserver has a public
ip. that part I think I got but the "impossible to route all server
traffic out through the public address" part I don't really get, do you
mean all traffic from this vserver? from the base server? or everything
(base + all vservers)?
