Well I am working on the new syntax to IPchains. Do we have a debianized version of ipmasqadm that will replace ipautofw? I looked but the debian site is very slow from me now. Masq is a good as working with the 2.2.1 kernel.
My LP problem has been solved by compliling both PARPORT and PARPORT_PC into the kernel. I simply tried PARPORT but LP was still not found. I still have lp as a module. My lilo.conf passed the following: append = "ether=0,0,eth1 aha152x=0x340,11 lp=parport0 parport=0x378,7" And all works...
