I's suspect you'd have to figure out which ports it's using, and port forward from the masq box to whichever machine is running the game server. ipmasqadm should do the trick for you (and the nice thing is, the server sees the original IP address of the connection rather than the addy of the masq box). I use it to forward SMTP, ICQ, ssh (part-time) and SpeakFreely into my localnet. -- Michael "Soruk" McConnell [Eridani Linux 6.3 Now!] Eridani Linux -- The Most Up-to-Date Red Hat-based Linux CDROMs Available Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.eridani.co.uk Fax: +44-8701-600807 *** Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum viditur. *** _______________________________________________ Masq maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Admin requests can be handled at http://www.indyramp.com/masq-list/ -- THIS INCLUDES UNSUBSCRIBING! or email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] PLEASE read the HOWTO and search the archives before posting.
