I really, really tried to find info on this myself. You asked me if I used
the looseUDP patch...well I guess I don't know. I thought it was included in
Alan Cox's patch but after reading the beta IPMASQ-HOWTO I'm not sure. I
don't remember being able to choose that option in the config(yes I enabled
experimental code). So I followed the instructions in the HOWTO to apply the
patch. I didn't let it scare me that the number on the loosedup patch is
2.0.36 and my kernel is 2.2.3 because I told you that as well and you also
recommended it. When attempting to patch the fresh 2.2.3 source I get 9 out
of 9 hunks failed. The HOWTO also says it is important to apply the
IPPORTFW patch first. I didn't do that because portfw support is rolled
2.2.x into the kernels. Can you offer some assistance?

p.s.I wish I had the new IPMASQ_HOWTO when I was starting out. Thanks for
all the work.

Hmmm... you know.. you might want to try out Juanjo's newest
patches for the 2.2.x kernels. Evidently, some of the MASQ modules
BROKE in 2.2.x and though he has fixed them, his patches haven't
been rolled into the new kernel yet. Check them out at:
http://juanjox.linuxhq.com
If this solves your problems with the 2.2.3 kernel and IPMASQADM's
IPPORTFW, please let me know.
