You need ncurses-dev as well as ncurses for make menuconfig - this has caught a few people out, including me. I'm using kernel 2.4.20, self-compiled. In make menuconfig, under Networking Options --->, I have enabled: Packet socket Packet socket: mmapped IO Network packet filtering Socket filtering Unix domain sockets TCP/IP networking Possibly not all of this is needed - mmapped IO for example - but it doesn't hurt. Then in the submenu IP: Netfilter Configuration ---> are a whole wad of options, some of which are needed. Not knowing precisely which I would need and which not, I enabled the whole lot as modules. For setting up the masquerading, see the thread "modem / pon / serial problems", in which my problems were sorted out.
