Hi,

I have followed the steps as outlined in the Howto and
started the tests of chapter 5, but the test fails at
5.8 Testing external MASQ ICMP forwarding. I can ping
my external ip address in step 5.7 but when I ping an
external server by it's ip address the request times
out. Pinging the same address from within the Linux
server works. Does anybody have an idear why test 5.8
fails? The firewall script used is the one described
in the howto (simple one, not the stronger one)
Gated and routed are not running, already checked
that. Are there other programs/services that block
ICMP formarding?

thanks for helping,

  Sander
