He's using ipmasqadm portfw (all the docs I've found recommend this
method) in
http://www.ecst.csuchico.edu/~dranch/LINUX/TrinityOS-security/etc/rc.d/rc.firewall-trinityos-3.70

Mandrake has portfw as a module. It seems to work like any masq
module, add it in the firewall script or load from console.

#modprobe ip_masq_portfw

#lsmod then shows
Module                  Size  Used by
ip_masq_portfw          2628   0  (unused)  

I haven't tried using it so I don't know if that's all you need. I've
been frustrated with the docs I have found.
