Thanks for the reply. I'm still in a quandary. I have installed .deb packages for iptables and ipmasq. I believe I have enabled the appropriate kernel options (there seem to be many more options in the 2.4 series kernel). I regret to say that I am ignorant of the intricacies of the iptables package, and don't have documentation to read. Is anyone willing to summarize the minimum kernel options I must enable to provide ipmasq over a ppp dial-up connection? I'm stuck and still using my old 2.2 kernel.
