That's a strange one. What is the contents of /var/lib/iptables/rules-save? Just to confirm that it isn't, try it once more. eg: 1) /etc/init.d/iptables restart 2) iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ppp0 -s 196.168.0.0/3 -j MASQUERADE 3) /etc/init.d/iptables save BTW don't you actually want 192.168.0.0?
