How many clients are using your masq-gate at the same time? Which Linux are you running? Initially, I would check your timers, if alot of clients are connecting, I would make it less. I have been using the following, it works fine for a "home-network" and also a "busy-office-network". # timeouts # 15 minutes for tcp, 5 mins - after a fin, 10 mins for udp /sbin/ipfwadm -M -s 900 300 600 I forget what the "default" values are. -- Matthew --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For daily digest info, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]
