Search for NAT or http proxy

2000-09-30 Thread jblanche
Hi all

I am new in this mailing liste. ..

I am using  LinuxPPC on Imac box and I have 3 other hosts at home. As I
need to use all this hosts with only one PPP connection (and only one
Dynamic IP address) I would need  NAT module for Linux PPPC  which
would work with dynamic IP allocations for ppp (The NAT rule cannot be
static..)

Does any body know if this kind of NAT module existe for Linux
PPC ??? If not I will chose only a proxy http server. Does somebody as
already tests some http  proxy on Linux PPC box ?

Thanks for answer

Jerome.

The standard Linux kernel NAT can do this.  If you tell the kernel to
masquerade all packets with source addresses on your local network and
leave the destination address unspecified then it will do the right
thing.

It's, in fact, no bigger problem than:
pppconfig


I want to set up my modem for automatic dialup upon detection of non-local
IP-requests. 
That is, make it act like a dialup router with NAT, and there's something with
the IP setup I can't get to work. Help, anyone?
I use a normal ISP account which assigns random IP adresses in both ends.

Not without more information.  Exactly what have you tried and exactly what
happened?  Be verbose.  Post config files and logs.
