Please disregard my previous email. On my fifth kernel compile, I now have ipmasquerading. I enabled and included everything under the sun with regard to ppp, iptables, ipchains, and ipmasquerading. Undoubtedly, I have a bloated kernel with features I don't need, but it works now.
I now need to educate myself on the differences between 2.4 and 2.2 with respect to iptables/ipchains. Is there a concise synopsis anywhere in the Linux Documentation Project that I can reference? Thanks to all who have replied. Happy Holidays! Regards, Russ On Tue, 24 Dec 2002, Russ Cook wrote: > Thanks for the reply. I'm still in a quandary.
