You didn't say what you tried to do to get it working, nor what behavior
your see, nor what behavior you *want* to see.

Be aware that, as a unix box, your masq box has its own telnet and ftp
daemons already running, and if you want to forward those service to
another box behind the masq box, you will first have to disable those
services (which could make it difficult to login to the masq box!) or
else forward the services using a different port.

SMTP is the same story.

Perhaps because you don't run an httpd on your masq box.

Redir does its job very well, but you might prefer to use "ipmasqadm
portfw" instead, because then your servers behind the masq lan will see
the true IP addresses of the machines connecting.  If you use redir,
they will only see the masq box's private IP, which is useless for
logging purposes.

Wow, everything?  If you really did try everything, then there must be
no way to make it work.  ;)
