I was setting up IP MASQ so that my internal network can access the
internet.  I found information at the  linux howto
documentation.  Basically my problem was that it told me to add lines for
a firewall to the files /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall  which i did.  Then it told
me to add a line to /etc/rc.d/rc.local so that it runs the firewall. My
understanding is that if I type /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall it would run,
however it give me the error I cant remember what it is but i believe it
basically meant the it could not run the file because the file it self was
not runnable.  I type chmod 700 /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall like it said in the
howto but i still cant run it.  Can anyone tell me why?
