Hmm.. As I read the code in /etc/init.d/network (LRP 2.9.8; snippet
below), setting "IPFWDING_FW=NO" blocks forwarding.
if [ "$IPFWDING_FW" != "YES" ]; then
ipchains -A forward -j DENY && vb echo -n
"[Forwarding: DENY] "
else
vb echo -n "[Forwarding: ACCEPT] "
fi
Since the original poster isn't firewalling, he may need to add
"ipchains -A forward -j ACCEPT" to /etc/network_direct.conf

well have it backwards this time)
