Watch the kernel log /var/log/syslog, or
Check resource limits (umlilit -a, ulimit -Sa), or
strace the process to see what happens.

I don't believe the standard ipmasq setup provides any form of
firewalling.
I have attached the script that I'm currently using. Feel free to use it
if it suits you.

Is there a way to enable the magic SysRq key without compiling a custom
