hi everyone,

i'm trying to get my gentoo box running as a firewall and nat-router for
my home-network. therefore i took the iptables-example script as seen in
the gentoo security guide
(http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-security.xml#doc_chap12) and
modified it a little.

the server is able to establish an adsl-connection and lynx has no prob
to surf the net. the firewall script is started and from inside the
network i can easily access the server (192.168.0.1) via ssh, but theres
no response to pings from e.g. 192.168.0.121 . the server itself is not
able to make pings and get a strange error message:

***
        tux root # ping www.google.com
        PING www.google.akadns.net (216.239.59.99) 56(84) bytes of data.
        ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
        ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
        ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted

        --- www.google.akadns.net ping statistics ---
        3 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 2000ms
***


my firewallscript is attached to this mail.
i do not see a mistake or something in that script.
btw another strange behavior: yesterday the nat routing suddenly ran for
about 10 minutes without changing the script (as i can remember).

i am thankful for every little hint :)
