Dear
Linux-net,
I have a problem
setting up my masquerading linuxrouter to forward napsterclients. I (on the
private side of the router) can do downloads from other clients, but the other
clients are not able to do downloads from me. Napster sees that people are
trying, but the status of their uploads is "Waiting...". The setup is as
follows:
The home-LAN is
10.11.12.0/24. napster is running on a windowsclient which is adressed
10.11.12.12. The router is assigned a static public IP on the outside (eth1) and
10.11.12.13 on the LAN-side (eth0). I used the following lines, which in my
opinion should work, straightforward as it is:
/sbin/ipchains -P
forward DENY
/sbin/ipchains -A
forward -p tcp --destination-port 6699 -j MASQ
/sbin/ipchains -A
forward -i eth1 -p all -s 10.11.12.0/24 -j ACCEPT
But it doesn't.
It attempts to masq all outgoing traffic, which works and attempts to deny
all incoming traffic except trafic to port 6699, which is the port I configured
in napster. It denys all though, except for connections initiated from the
LAN.
Can anyone please
tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Serge
