Hey all, I am setting up a new NAT / Packet FIlter box and am having probs with iptables. I am using 2.4.0-test5 and iptables version 1.1.1 I can masqerade fine it seems as I can surf and connect to remote machines but am having probles with forwarding incomming packets. I do the following from an init script #---- start init script modprobe iptable_nat echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward ### # Try making the NAT Table iptables -N nat ### # Flush iptables -F ##### # Start the NAT Stuff iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth1 -j MASQUERADE ## # Test port forwarding. iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -p tcp -d 208.210.145.140 --dport 110 \ -j DNAT --to 10.0.1.2:110 #--- End script once I exec this script I do a $iptables -L FORWARD and get Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Which tells me that there are no entries in that chain. Which is odd as you can see there is clearly an entry in iptables init script that makes one. Any help you guys could provide would be greatly appreciated. Am I missing something? -- Ben Lutgens Work: 612.379.5941 Cell: 651.387.9065 Home: 651.703.9541 Systems Administrator Sistina Software Inc. http://www.globalfilesystem.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: tclug-list-unsubscribe at mn-linux.org For additional commands, e-mail: tclug-list-help at mn-linux.org
