RTFM!!! man ipchains clearly states:
-M, --masquerading
This option allows viewing of the currently mas
queraded connections (in conjuction with the -L
option) or to set the kernel masqerading parameters
(with the -S option).
The emphasis lies on "currently*"! That is, only if a masqueraded host
hast open connections, something will show up!
