[IP address stuff deleted]

Your are making it a lot harder than it is.  All you need to do is select 
the zone (as you have done) and select SERVER, not dynamic.  The other 
settings i.e. net class, subnet address etc are meaningless - the MultiGate 
knows all these.

If you are still having problems, try e-mailing me or the MultiGate list.

Cheers.
