> Do you have firewalling enabled on the XP? No. I actually just tried it with an old Windows CE box...same thing... Of course...dialup with my linux box...works great!

As you see in the dumps, dns is working fine too. One thing to note: I missed a line that the host was listening to the ip address 172.16.16.254:3128. I have tried 4 systems now (different windows ver). Currently I have NAT turned off. I think I will drop to basic nat, then work my way up. Just as a note: this system has 4 network cards in it... eth0 - outside eth1 - private net eth2 (dmz1) - second private net (wireless) eth3 (dmz2) - direct connect (crossover cable) to a cisco as5300. Purpose is when a user hasn't paid, radius will stick them in a "special" group. The 5300 gives them a special ip number and route-map's their traffic to the linux box (eth0) as the default gateway. Then, iptables grabs port 80 traffic, redirects it to 3128 and gives them a webpage stating to pay their bill. Thanks for the help. My comrades are lost on this one too. Mark San Antonio, TX, USA
