Hi Peter,

Well at least one place to check is
/etc/sysctl.conf

Make sure there is a line like this

net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1

to enable packet forwarding.

Otherwise, you should post more about your configuration to get more help.
There are quite a few differences between 6.0 and 6.2. Not major ones, just
enough to make things have to be gone over to make things work.

Have fun,
