Hello, I'd like to post a problem for which I read tons of mail thread, but that I can't absolutely get rid of. I've a little lan with 3 "client" computers and a gateway/router, a linux box with 2.4.* kernel connected to the Internet by ADSL. I've compiled kernel to use NAT and Ip masquerading with iptables and everething works well, everything but this: 1: There's no way for me to establish an active ftp connection to any ftp server on the Internet, if I try it by a masqued WINDOWS client (It works with linux clients). I compiled ip_masq_ftp as a part of the kernel and not as a module, so I don't think it's a problem of module loading. Oh, don't tell me to switch to passive mode, it's too simple in that way :-) 2. I can't connect to any IRC by a windows client if I put the gateway iptables INPUT policy to DROP (and another time, the same thing work with a linux client). Does anyone know why windoze clients give so many problems? Thanks a lot Dario alias " The Crow " _______________________________________________ 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.
