sorry, didn't get to quote your message -- some odd format.
(in mutt i could read it by going into another level of 'viewer'
but it wasn't a quotable option.)

for NAT or masquerading, first set up your firewall box
as your masq box via /etc/network/interfaces, then install
ipmasq and you're reasonably done.
# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)
# The loopback interface
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.1.1
netmask 255.255.0.0
network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
iface eth1 inet static
address public.ip.address.here
netmask 255.255.255.0
network public.ip.address.0
broadcast public.ip.address.255
gateway gateway.to.isp.here
then
apt-get install ipmasq
or if you have it already then
update-rc.d ipmasq defaults
or to just reset it by hand,
/etc/init.d/ipmasq restart
ipmasq also works, if you're really lazy.
try "iptraf" to see if there's any network traffic that doesn't
make sense. (apt-get install iptraf)

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #10 from Will Trillich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
:
Looking to run a command or two at REGULAR INTERVALS? Try
"crontab -e" for starters (see "man cron" or "man crontab").
You might also investigate the "anacron" package.
