Here's the order of my iptables script: 1. set variables and do file exec tests (test -x /sbin/iptables) 2. load modules (ipt_MASQUERADE, ipt_state, etc.) 3. build chains (add rules) a. set default policies for my chains b. enable forwarding c. add INPUT rules d. add postrouting masquarade rule I hope this helps, jc -- Jeff Coppock Systems Engineer Diggin' Debian Admin and User -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
