This kinda makes sense though. I do only have 1 nic, eth0 that connects to my
hardware router - it handles the LAN as well, so I don't need 2 nics.
(incidentally, I do have 2 nics - one onboard but I have it turned off). What
makes sense is that from my google search I saw it posted several times that
Mandrakes' implementation of Shorewall does have the problem of making a
distiction - I just didn't put 2 and 2 together. I'll try the changes you
recommended and post results.
Thanks!
