Hi all,

        I'm running IP Masq on a linux box, with some windows 
boxes on the surrounding network.

        It functions fine, I can telnet/ftp whatever from the 
windows box to anywhere external, and can telnet/ftp from 
anywhere external to the linux box.

        The only problem I am having however is making 
connections from the linux box to anything external, such as 
telnet or ftp results in a connection refused, the hosts are 
clearly not down, nor is the interface the linux box has to the 
outside world. 

        Funnily enough pings/traceroutes work fine from the linux 
box to anywhere external

        Can anybody suggest anything? The only thing I can think 
of is that the linux box sends out the requests for the 
connection and then attempts to forward the connection 
acknowledgment to somewhere else on the network...
