Yesterday I set up a 2.2r1 box, upgraded to woody and set it up (with firestarter) to do masquerading. I set up a client to use the new machine as a gateway and it worked out of the box. Only then I read that the kernel that comes with 2.2 does not support masquerading my default and that I have to roll my own. Which kind of surprised me, since my box seemed to work. Does anybody know if I did something _wrong_, because it works (maybe the other/old gateway still does the job and I misconfigured something), or does the standard kernel support masquerading? Thanks in advance, Andreas PS: Box is Pentium 166, Kernel is default install Kernel from the official CDs, not changed when upgrading to woody.
