Hi,
I have run into a problem doing apt-get updates. While I don't think this a
Debian problem directly, this appears to be the best place to start
looking.
I don't think that the problem lies with apt. I have the problem on a Sparc
box (SparcStation 1+) as well as an i386 (AMD K6-2/450). Here is
/etc/network/interfaces for non-pcmcia ethx
ipmasq package for ipmasq routing firewalling.
read Debian BTS web page of ipmasq to get it working with
stronger firewall config.

How do you use the Debian configuration tools to set up a
multi-NIC route/firewall?
I'm actually looking at 3 Ethernet NICS and 1 PCMCIA wireless LAN

I don't need much software installed, it's just the configuration
