Re: RE:ipfwadm

[Kirk]

Hello,
Unfortunately this didn't work.  I'm sure it's something I'm doing wrong and
it's driving me nutty, the iptables man documentation is cryptic at best and
provides no examples (is there someplace I can go to view similar
examples?).  So here's what I have, maybe someone has time to clue me in:

Hardware Config:
--------------------
"the internet cloud"
        |
(eth1)  - 10.1.1.166/30
[LXS] - Linux 2.4.18
(eth0) - 192.168.0.1/24
        |
(eth1) - 192.168.0.22/24
[WNT] - Windoze NT 2000
--------------------

This was working with kernel 2.2.x and ipchains:
--------------------
# rc.firewall
/sbin/depmod -a
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_ftp
echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
ipchains -M -S 7200 10 60
ipchains -P forward DENY
ipchains -A forward -s 192.168.0.0/24 -j MASQ
--------------------

So I replaced it with:
--------------------
# rc.firewall
iptables -F
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth0/proxy_arp
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth1/proxy_arp
iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth1 -s 192.168.0.22/24 -d 10.1.1.166/30 -v
iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -o eth0 -s 10.1.1.166/30 -d 192.168.0.22/24 -v
--------------------

And a call to iptables -L reveals:
--------------------
$ >sudo iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination
           all  --  192.168.0.0/24       bdsl.10.1.1.164.gte.net/30
           all  --  bdsl.10.1.1.164.gte.net/30  192.168.0.0/24

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination
$ >
--------------------

Now, everything else withing the local 192 network is working, samba and
all.  From WNT I can ping 192.168.0.1 and 10.1.1.166, and From LXS I can
ping 192.168.0.22.  I'm obviously no expert but it looks like it's missing
something related to the masqurading (nat perhaps?)

Frustrated,
Kirk
