They shouldn't even notice! The whole point of IP Masq is to translate on
the fly. Providing uyou use private IP adddesses (as defined by the RFC),
you shouldn't have any problems. All data is rewritten by the Masq/NAT
box to use the public IP address assigned by your ISP. This is why some
protocols (e.g. FTP and some games) have problems - the IP Masq won't
touch any IP addresses that are emvbedded in the packet's payload.
