Hey Everyone..

Welp.. I think I've tracked down a problem here with Redhat5's IPFWADM.

I've found that if I setup MASQ on a Redhat5 box with all of the
recent patches, it works fine and the output of the MASQ entries
from IPFWADM table looks good:

[root@trinity ipfwadm-2.3.0]# ipfwadm -lM
IP masquerading entries
prot expire   source               destination          ports
udp  00:10.79 stimpy2.trinnet.net  proxy.frmt1.sfba.home.com 1033 (61007) ->
domain
tcp  01:50.47 stimpy2.trinnet.net  ftp.redhat.com       1051 (61008) -> ftp


*BUT*.. as soon as I do an ICMP ping from a MASQ'ed box and then look
at the table again, I get:

[root@trinity ipfwadm-2.3.0]# ipfwadm -lM
IP masquerading entries
ipfwadm: unexpected input data
Try `ipfwadm -h' for more information.


So, I thought that this might be an issue with the timeout patch
but low and behold, the stock IPFWADM code won't compile under
Glibc v2.  Now, Redhat has patched their code to make it compile 
under glibc so I grabbed ALL the sources and patches, recompiled
successfully but it didn't solve a THING.  Even after a 
reboot.  Any ideas?
