I've had the Linux Masquerade Resource (http://www.e-infomax.com/ipmasq/) "stronger" firewall and forwarding script working with a Redhat 7.5 2.4 kernel for several years now without any problem. A week ago all web browser connections from my masqed PCs stopped working. FTP, ping, SSH, all work, the connections are forwarded, but web requests get no connection. The masqing linux box plugged into the cable modem has no problem with the web, and when I take the linux box out of the circuit and hook a Windows machine up directly (after configuring TCP/IP) it has no problem either. I'm stumped. I've switched around ethernet cards too, and tried the "weaker" script, without any change. What could have happened? Is there any way my provider (Roadrunner) could know when a http request is coming from a masqed PC? Is there a specific module handling http requests that I can try replacing? Can I check to see if the http port is blocked?
Thanks, Mike Holloway
