Hi,
I recently upgraded my kernel from 2.0.36 to 2.2.5 and also moved from
ipfwadm to ipchains. My firewall system has two interface one to my ISP
(mediaone) and other to my home LAN (192.168.0)
Here are my rules in the forward chain (added in rc.local):
ipchains -P forward DENY
ipchains -A forward -s 192.168.1.0/24 -j MASQ
Also set FORWARD_IPV4= yes in /etc/sysconfig/network.
My problem is every time my system reboots, I have to manually "ping"
all the hosts on my LAN from the firewall machine. Only after I do
that, IP masquerading works. Any ideas why?
Thanks in advance,
Nehali
