I am pawing through the rc.config and notice a "ipfilter=NO" entry. From
this am I to assume the kernel already has IP filtering installed? I want
to do IP Masquerading to allow my three machine network use a single
dynamic IP from ISP to connect to the internet. I have seen discussions
about NAT and fwtk.
I have downloaded fwtk and looked at it's installation instructions and
find that this is not what I want. I don't want a fire wall.
I also downloaded the IP Filter package and have looked at the README. The
question comes to mind; Do I need to install this if it is already in the
kernel?
Any insights, experiences, examples would be great.
Jesse
P.S. This really is fun. I took a week off from work and have done little
else. I have got netatalk install and working, DNS up and running. Now
all I need is PPP and IP Masquerading.
