You're in luck.  The Dachstein kernels come pre-patched for VPN-Masquerade,
so all you have to do is load the modules, and open a couple ports to get
IPSec masquerading working.

Yes.  While the firewall scripts have been updated, and extensively modified
(mainly to support new DMZ features), the new scripts are extensions of the
previous ones.  I usually merge previous network.conf settings manually.
NOTE:  I typically mount my old floppy (or config disk) once I've booted a
fresh Dachstein disk, and uncompress the old filesystem into /tmp, so I can
copy/edit/compare files.  Just "gunzip <pkg.lrp | tar -xv" in /tmp.

WARNING:  If you want to use the bootable CD version, it contains a kernel
that supports IPSec running on the firewall...this kernel will *NOT*
masquerade IPSec VPN connections (saddly, you can either masqerade IPSec, or
run IPSec on the firewall, but the same kernel won't support both).  If you
want, I can make an ISO with a kernel that will masquerade IPSec
connecctions...let me know.

Final note:  You don't really have to upgrade, if you don't want to.  You
can add some custom forwarding rules to /etc/ipfilter.conf to block the
traffic filling up your logs, or merge in a few features from the newer
scripts, like support for SILENT_DENY, or support for the
/etc/ipchains.forward file (where you can specify your own forward rules).
