Hello gang.
After much reading, I managed to setup a Linux machine for a
friend, running Rh6.1, on a PPPoe connection with DHCP and
Ipchains. Ipchains provides the masquerading, DHCP provides the
IPs for other machines on the net (for now, just one). The machine
is a P166 with 64 MB of RAM and a 1.2 GIG HD. Everything works
great, especially after 6 frustrating hours. I've learned a lot though.
Question: news cannot be read anymore from the Win98 machine
connected to the Linux box acting as an Ipmasquerading machine.
Is there a solution for this? Perhaps I missed a module? I am still
having a wee wee bit problems understanding IPchains (it took me
a bit to figure out the basics alone). Anyone know what I should
read or if there is a way to enable news to be accessible again?
Thanks.
