I did a clean installation of RedHat 5.0 on a machine today, applied the
various updated packages from the RedHat errata pages, and recompiled the
kernel as per the advice that's been given on this list, viz. compile with
CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL and CONFIG_IP_MASQUERADE_IPAUTOFW, in addition to all
the required stuff for masquerading. /proc/net/ip_autofw was there, and I
used the pre-compiled ipautofw to forward some stuff successfully.
There doesn't appear to be any problem specific to RedHat 5.0/glibc.
You're either not configuring the kernel correctly, or you're not booting
from the kernel you compiled.
