You need to install the bin86 package. BTW, when you get the kernel properly compiled the ipmasq package drops right in and gives you what you want.

ip masquerading on debian slink
hello i've got a LAN setup and would like a linux box on it to be a gateway. the LAN works fine but it is a class C network and i would like to enable ip masquerading on the linux box (debian slink). i'm having two problems: 1. debian distributions don't compile ip masquerading into the kernel, right? 2. kernel compile problems. problem 1: decoding an error message generated while trying to enable ip masquerading on kernel without ip masquerading enabled. error messages: # ipchains -F input ipchains: setsockopt failed: Protocol not available # ipchains -F ipchains: cannot open file '/proc/net/ip_fwnames' problem2: compiling the kernel. i configure the kernel the way the IP Masquerade howto suggests for 2.0.x kernels. the compilation almost completes and generates a command 'as86' which generates a command not found error. any suggestions? any help or references to relevant documentation would be appreciated. thanks, __ Brad Reid, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
