Hello, all.  I am looking for the easiest way to set
up a home network sharing a single internet connection
by routing the connection through a linux machine.  I
am running kernel 2.4.x and RedHat 8.0 with two
ethernet cards where eth0 is a DHCP address and eth1
is an internal address.  

Attempts at using ipchains have failed with the
following error: 

ipchains: Incompatible with this kernel.

I have also made various attempts at using iptables,
but without any success.  The basic idea of what I
have attempted to do with iptables is:

iptables -P FORWARD DROP
iptables -A FORWARD -i ppp0 10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0

I tried adding -j MASQUERADE to the last line, but
that ended with errors.  I have also tried a multitude
of other commands, but without any luck.

Any suggestions?

Angela
