I've gotten through the IP MASQ HOW TO but still have a problem which I think is a minor one, but a crucial one. Hopefully, someone knows what I need to do to complete the puzzle. Attached are my iptable rules and listings of my ifconfig and netstat output. In the netstat listing, the last entry points all 0.0.0.0 requests to 192.168.0.1 and I think it should be pointing to the IP of my external NIC (gotten via DHCP and DSL). How can I fix this? I can ping my other computer (the Masq'd internal machine) but cannot ping the outside world unless I use a ping of the form "ping x.x.x.x -I ppp0" which DOES work. My browser and other 'net programs are drawing a blank, too.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

NW98
