This leads to the golden rule for Masq problems if using ANY
firewaalling script.
When you have a problem with an application, enable logging using the
ipchains '-l' option, open a terminal windows and run "tail -f
/var/log/messages". I have caught so many problems this way it is
untrue, and if you have a very strict firewall setup it will help you
debug new and strange protocols...
Stuart -> don't feel bad. This has caught almost all of us at one time
or another ;-)
