Not enough information. Your explanation is a little terse. Have you enabled routing? Have you set up Masq? What are the IP's involved and all pertinent data. What lines did you add for Masq? Did you read the Masq howto? Did you understand it heh... I'm being facetious... (hey it IS complex, but you only need the simple example to get you going... worry about firewall rules later...) What/where is your DNS? Etc., etc., etc. -JMS |-----Original Message----- |From: Joe Lore [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] |Sent: Sunday, June 18, 2000 11:38 AM |To: Newbie@Linux-Mandrake.
