Well, In my original message about this, I pasted an output of an error I got when I would run iptables. It has something to do with modules.
Also, the reason I was going to try iptables is when I try to MASQ with ipchains, there seems to be a "Buffer" that fills up after a day or so that causes my external nic to lose connection with my ISP (I have DSL and a Cisco 678 router). So I thought that ipchains was "Depreciating" with the new Kernel and would not handle the load anymore. If there is some other problem, any input would help. A Little back round: I'm running 2 Red Hat supported NIC's. Internet side nic is a 10 and the Network side is a 100. I'm running the latest SMP kernel from RHN. Again, after about a day or so of GREAT performance, the external NIC seems to "Bog" down. I will be able to ping another host on the Internet and get a 105 ms reply. Then, after some usage, the ping will go up to 200, then 600, then into the thousands. Eventually, I actually lose WAN connection. I have to do a /etc/init.d/network restart for it to go back to normal. I guess I can create a cron job to do that nightly... Any thoughts?
