Certainly pretty good as far as a basic explanation goes, problem is 
that masquerading is not yet up to the level of ipchains and thats what 
most people want. (One IP address, masqueraded to many machines for use 
with ftp, realaudio etc).  I still reckon that ipchains with a 2.2 
kernel is still the simplest and most generally accepted way to do 
firewalling if you want particular services masqueraded.
