Greetings all,
When @home went under I lost my static IP and my cable company forced me
to switch to DHCP. Over the past few weeks, I have been trying to sort
out the consequences.
Everything seams to be working fine if I use:
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j SNAT --to my.ip.address
But since my ip changes occasionally now, I thought I should be using:
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
When I do this, however, my machines on the internal network can't see the
rest of the world.
I hope I am not misinterpreting the documentation. Please let me know
what the best way to fix this is, or even how to truble shoot it. I'm not
getting any error messages.
System: linux 2.4.16
debian testing
dhclient 2.0pl5
Thanks,
JD
