I'm posting this here, because I figured it was a bit above the newbie level.
If wrong, I apologise...
I ran BastilleChooser, I added a rule to iptables, and I'm not able to get
Quake 3, v1.31 to find my other 2 Linux comps. (or them find me). I've got
Mandrake v8.2.
Networking is up:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:03:6D:19:C1:B3

and here is what iptables status gives:
[root@darkforce darklord]# service iptables status
Table: nat
Chain PREROUTING (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
DNAT udp -- anywhere anywhere udp dpt:quake3
to:192.168.0.2:27960
DNAT udp -- anywhere anywhere udp dpt:quake3
to:192.168.0.3:27960
Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Ping works great for both the other comps:
[root@darkforce darklord]# ping darkforce2
PING darkforce2.com (192.168.0.2) from 192.168.0.1 : 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from darkforce2.com (192.168.0.2): icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=255 usec
--- darkforce2.com ping statistics ---
3 packets transmitted, 3 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/mdev = 0.255/0.467/0.890/0.299 ms
[root@darkforce darklord]# ping darkforce3
PING darkforce3.com (192.168.0.3) from 192.168.0.1 : 56(84) bytes of data.

3 packets transmitted, 3 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/mdev = 0.261/0.732/1.676/0.667 ms
and some other games (like armagetron) work fine. Also, both my other comps
(they are my sons) dual boot with Windoze 98 se. Under Windows, we can find
and play games with each other (I'm still in Linux).
If I could get most of my games networking on the Linux side, on all 3 comps,
I'm gonna dump Windows on all my machines (its already gone off mine).
Thanks in advance!
PS One other thing - on both my other comps, under Linux, during bootup, it
says Iptables starts, and the message about flushing/reading rules is given.
On my comp, it only says Iptables are started... Any ideas?
