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.
