Oh!  Well, then two things you can do.  Use private IP's on the OPT
interface and use 1:1 NAT (probably not possible given what you've
said), or use the subnet .152/29 on your OPT interface.  OPT would be
.153, and you would have .154-.158 as usable client IP's that you
could assign with DHCP.

There might be another way to do this, anybody out there done this in
some other fashion *without* NAT or bridging?
