/* HINT: Search archives @ http://www.indyramp.com/masq/ before posting! /* ALSO: Don't quote this header. It makes you look lame :-) */ Well, thats it. I have no idea what is wrong. I am running a Red Hat 7.1 linux box as a gateway to the internet. I used the "Linux IP Masquerade HOWTO, David A. Ranch" pretty much verbatim. Red Hat 7.1 uses a 2.4.2-2 kernel. I am using "iptables" to perform the masquerading. Anyhow, my "netstat -rn" routing tables look good. My "rc.firewall" script works fine. "/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward" is 1. All the modules I need load fine. >From a machines on my intranet, I can ping both internal and external addresses of the linux box. But I cannot talk to machines outside of our network (aka internet...tried pinging ftp.cdrom.com, doesn't work). Before I started using the iptables, I had an ipchains firewall running. I simply stoped ipchains, then unloaded the ipchains module. I then loaded all the modules needed to run NAT and setup the iptables rules. Still not working... I'm at the end of my rope. Thanks any help, Fats _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. _______________________________________________ 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.
