Hi Folks;
I'm a newbie to linux, trying to setup IP-Masq.
I am running Slackware (3.5 distribution) - 2.0.34 kernel, recompiled with 
options set as defined in the
IP-MASQ-HOW2.

I have a local network setup.  Workstations are W95. I am using PPP to 
dialup my ISP.  the connection works, and  I am able to surf on the linux 
box, and ping anywhere on the I-net.  From the linux box I am also able to 
ping any workstation on the lan.  Likewise the W95 workstations are able to 
ping & telnet into the linux box. (I'll disable this later, I just wanted 
to see if it worked).

The W95 workstations are not able to ping, browse, or see the Inet.
When trying to ping from the workstation, I get a request timed out 
message.  The browser does not connect to a DNS server - using numbers or 
names.


Using netstat -r gives:

Destination             Gateway         Genmask Flags   MSS     Iface
sf-netserver1.id                *               255.255.255.255 UH      1500    ppp0
Localnet                        *               255.255.255.0   U       1500    eth0
Loopback                *               255.0.0.0       U       U       3584    lo
Default                 sf-netserver1.id        0.0.0.0         UG      1500    ppp0

typing "netstat -M" shows
netstat.c: feature 'FW-MASQUERADE' not supported.
Please recomplie 'net-tools' with newer kernel source or full 
configuration.

guessing that i missed a switch during the "make config" step of building 
the kernel, I compiled the kernel again, but get this same message.


is there still a switch I missed?
what else should I check?

any ideas would be appreciated.



thanks..
