Here is my /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/00ipmasq which I use on my ppp connected gateway: ##########Begin#### #!/bin/sh # # ipmasq.ip-up Reinitializes the ipmasq settings when PPP comes up # # v1.0 19 July 1998 ##### test -x /sbin/ipmasq || exit 0 if [ -e /etc/ipmasq/ppp ]; then /sbin/modprobe ip_masq_ftp.o /sbin/modprobe ip_masq_raudio.o /sbin/modprobe ip_masq_irc.o /sbin/modprobe ip_masq_cuseeme.o /sbin/modprobe ip_masq_vdolive.o /sbin/modprobe ip_masq_quake.o /sbin/ipfwadm -F -a masquerade -P all -S 192.168.1.95/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0 /sbin/ipfwadm -F -p deny /sbin/ipfwadm -M -s 100000 100000 100000 /sbin/ipmasq fi ##END#### I believe that the /sbin/ipfwadm -M -s 100000 100000 100000 is the pertinent line. Note: this machine is a 2.0.37 kernel on Debian 2.1. I am not sure of the equivalent ipchains incantation. Maybe someone else on the list can toss it out here. I am no masqquerading or Linux guru. I have used Linux since '95 and seem to have forgotten more than I remember. Hope it helps... Tom
