ok... so, i have this nice new firewall script that's auto-executed whenever i start rp-pppoe...
i'm connecting using ADSL, so ppp0 is different every time i connect (which isn't very frequent unless something goes whacky on the ISP's side). so, here's the deal... i have a nice ipmasqadm part that forwards ICQ stuff for me: ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -L 4.x.x.x 4000 -R 192.168.1.11 4000 now then... i had to manually put in my $EXTERNAL_INTERFACE (the 4.x.x.x) because for some reason, ipmasqadm won't accept the variable. i would like the ipmasqadm to work with the variable for ppp0 ($EXTERNAL_INTERFACE)... rather than manually typing in the dang external ip and re-running the script just so i can use ICQ. any idears? thanks!!! -jeff -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
