Have a web server, it has two ethers. One IP is set a public address the other is set to a private IP.The server is running DNS and I have SunScreen fire wall software installed. I have a cisco 675 router and is the default router. I want to put my other machines behind the firewall and assigned them a private networking IP. Not using DHCP at this piont. I have a 3m superstack switch which every thing is being connected to the one switch including the router. I have tried to set up a static and dynamic NAT rule between the private and the public network and assigned NT box a private IP. Nothing I do is working. The OS is Solaris 7 on the server.

I would appreciate any help I can get in finishing my set-up

If I understand correctly (always in doubt!), your public ethernet card should connect directly to the router (via a cross-over cable, if necessary) and the private ethernet card should connect to the switch. Everthing else should also connect to the switch & have an IP address from your provate address range, with the Sun firewall as their default gateway.

One by one, the penguins steal my sanity.
 
That makes sense and is the only thing I haven't tried.
Thanks for the reply and I will surely let you know what happens.
