I'm trying to set up masquerading. I have this configuration:


    Linux box, called penny, ip=xxx.241 on interfaces ax0 and eth0
                             ip=xxx.244 on interface sl0 

    Dos box, called tippete, ip=xxx.243 connected to penny's sl0 

    Linux box, called kim,   ip=xxx.242, connected to penny's eth0      

I have the whole subnet from 240 to 247

I have been able to make tippete talk to penny's sl0 (ping and telnet work)
but I can't have it communicate with any other ip address on the net.
I've seen "ICMP Unreachable port" replies coming on the dos box,
whenever I attempt a connection to the other machines.
>From kim, when telnetting tippete, I get "No route to host"

The whole network worked perfectly before I started messing up with
ipchains. I mean, if I don't load ipchains at all (commenting out the
appropriate startup file) the network works, obviously without
masquerading.

Are there any special rules for forwarding? I've tried this without
success:

 ipchains -A forward -j ACCEPT -b -s tippete

Also, where can I find some extensive docs about ipchains, possibly
with some examples? the IP masquerading mini howto talks only about
ipfwadm

Thanks

Pf
