Two problems:
1) Still struggling with my internet connection when I'm not root. As user,
wvdial compains about pemission denied for /dev/ttyS0. After every reboot the
change of permission is reversed again. How can I make it permanent?
Are you using devfs? Sounds like it...
?? What's that? And how can I find out? (Newbie)
2) Regarding routing (ipchains forwarding) I don't really know what I'm doing
... just know that it works when I issue the commands:
ipchains -P forward DENY
ipchains -A forward -i ppp0 -j MASQ
Are you sure? Shouldn't it be
ipchains -A forward -i ! ppp0 -j MASQ
otherwise you'll be masq all connections comming from ppp0!
O-oh! I begin to understand ...
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
as root.
To save and load at start time, look at
ipchains-save
ipchains-restore
Thank you!
