nat private networks to your external public ip??

Hi Jeremy..
If you have your external interface on a public network and all your other
subnets are internal/private networks a NAT rule might help you...

Add 1 such rule per subnet.

iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING -s <subnet-ip-range-internal> -o
<external-interface> -j SNAT -to-source <external-interface-ip>

eg.
iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING -s 192.168.3.0/24 -o eth1 -j SNAT -to-souce
64.1.2.3

To view your nat rules:
iptables -t nat -L -v

Hope this works for you...Let me know if it does.. good luck...

Yes I did it will route between the different subnets with the clients
gateway as the IP of eth1 but will not see out onto the net.

Have you configured the default gateway on the internal systems to the
IP
address of the firewall's eth1?
