Hello Michel,

Setting DiffServ (tos) bits are nice and all but very
VERY few ISPs honor them.  Even if your ISP does, they typically
don't honor them they way you think they should and typically
either reset or re-write the bits to their network design.  Even
if your ISP does honor it, your traffic will then transit to
another ISP.  Again.. they probably don't honor the tos bits
or honor them they way that either YOU or your ISP , then you
are then again very unlikely to get tos bit honoring.  Even
if they DO, they probably don't use the same bit pattern as
you OR your directly-attached ISP does.

Sorry for the grim outlook but this is reality.

This won't work.  If you are trying to do PORTFW, you
need to use the IPMASQADM tool (for 2.2.x) kernels.

Same as above though its interesting that it
1) works at all
2) only works on .2

Have you tried to use the DirectPlay MASQ module?
