Yep. It's a debian package called 'ipmasq'. It's a good base to start with, although the documentation w/the package was a little lacking last time I looked. :) The scripting is nice, as it parses your interfaces, decides which are internal, which are external, and sets up a basic ipmasquerading firewall. You can override/rewrite/add to the rules. You can set it up to reapply after each time you connect to the internet via ppp or just once when you boot. And, it works with both ipfwadm and ipchains. Install it and check it out. Chad
