Hi, We are having trouble to set up NAT on a server to act as gateway to a private home network.
I've done so on other machines, but each time compiled my own kernel. This time we tried to use Debian's. I.e. kernel-image-2.4.18-586tsc as distributed in woody 3.0 images. The machine connects correctly to the web, but NAT doesn't work. We've found this comment on the following page: http://www.aboutdebian.com/proxy.htm. "You can check to see if your kernel is set up for masquerading by issuing the command: ls /proc/net/ip_masq " On our installation, this displays nothing. We checked the kernel config as found in the package referenced on page: http://packages.debian.org/stable/base/kernel-image-2.4.18-586tsc.html and it seems that the kernel was compiled with everything necessary for NAT. Did we get something wrong? Is the comment stating to check /proc/net/ip_masq still valid regarding kernel 2.4.x? Do we have to compile our own kernel, or is there something we can do to correct the state. Cheers, Jerome -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
