RE: Linux 2.2.0pre2 and ipportfw

Well, after checking several files and some notes, I finally determined
the source of my problem......

First, thanks to everyone who lent assistance.

Second, I believe I owe the list an apology, since it turns out that I
have probably not had ipportfw working right since I started with 2.1.x.
It looks like I set up ipportfw using 2.0.34, not 2.1.12[79], and the
version of ipmasqadm I had installed was under-versioned. I updated my
copy of ipmasqadm this evening and everything appears to be working fine.
My router now has three X displays, which are hosted on three different
machines!

Yes, I am using ipmasqadm. That's how I am getting this to work
while running a 2.1.129 kernel.

Are you using ipmasqadm? That replaces ipportfw.

It looks like you may need to patch the kernel, or maybe not.
