Linux is case sensitive. Iptables is not the same as iptables Try... echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward iptables -P FORWARD DROP iptables -A FORWARD -s 192.168.0.0/24 -j ACCEPT iptables -A FORWARD -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE service iptables save chkconfig --level 2345 iptables on chkconfig --level 2345 ipchains off Then read this tutorial to put some protection into the connection. http://www.netfilter.org/documentation/tutorials/blueflux/ Regards, Peter -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
