Some background...

 I use a Netcomm modem/router/hub/firewall which runs embedded Linux for my
connection to the internet...on my LAN I have one Mandrake 8.1 box and two
WinME boxes. The Mandrake box is a simple server running Apache, Postfix and
Squid mainly.

The Netcomm uses port forwarding on ports 80 & 25 (ONLY) to the Mandrake
box.

As you may have guessed, I have a problem...  8-)

The problem is this:

I receive mail and everything else just fine, and I can send small emails
(under about 10-15k) just fine, but cannot send anything larger. If I try it
will start to send then slow gradually until it comes to a grinding halt and
eventually times out.

As near as I can determine it's related to this:

s

My knowledge is very limited, but obviously (?) I need to forward ICMP
messages to the Mandrake box.

My questions: How? What other  ports should be forwarded?

Thanks...

-Ross
