I am not quite sure about your issues and your network topology. But I suspect you have problem with ipchain rules. Are you using 2.2 kernel on gateway machine? If so, you need to change "time parameters" in /etc/ipmasq/rules/??... (I foregot it but one of the last five rules.) ipchain rules has expire time thing. read man page for it. > The only way I can get dhclient to fix itself is to stop ipmasq, ifdownup > eth0, then start ipmasq again.
