Hello all.

I just upgraded to the 2.4 Linux kernel and set out to get IP masquerading 
up and running again.

After reading the available online info, I issued the following commands:
modprobe iptable_nat
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ppp0 -j MASQUERADE
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

This worked without error.

The problem is that while my server can access the internet without 
difficulty, my client machine can only ping the DNS servers and nothing 
else. So I am able to get beyond my own network, but in a basically useless 
sort of way.

I didn't touch anything else and I am currently running with no firewall in 
order to get this up and running first.

Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Ian Truelsen.
