The IP forwarding info in ' man ipfwadm ' might answer most of your
questions.
In addition there is always the IP-Masquerade mini/Howto.
If you are using kernel-2.2.x then look at the IPCHAINS-HOWTO.
You will be able to understand the answers you get if you have at
least read through the above docs.

One good reason why computers can do more work than people is that they
never have to stop and answer the phone.
