/* HINT: Search archives @ http://www.indyramp.com/masq/ before posting! */ K people. I've had enough of this shit. I have set up a linux box as a gateway with an internat 56k modem. ICQ wont work properly. DCC file transfers always time out. nothing works like it should. I am using redhat 6.0, kernel 2.2.13, pppd 2.3.10, ipchains 1.3.9, etc. I have followed the howto's, and trinityos and have reformatted and started from scratch twice. but im having no luck here. Does any1 know why it isnt working consistantly? There is only 2 clients to this server. I have also checked that MTU/MRU problem and have had no results. In the case of ICQ i have tried the module too, and it didnt make a difference. Does any1 know what could be happening? I need some real advice here cause if i dont have this working soon ill have to move to some crappy windows server instead! i take it i cant attatch, so here r the files: /etc/ppp/eisa.chat [my chat script] -- ABORT 'NO CARRIER' ABORT 'NO DIALTONE' ABORT 'ERROR' ABORT 'BUSY' REPORT CONNECT '' ATZ OK ATM0L0W2 OK [phno] CONNECT '' -- /etc/ppp/startppp [my ppp start script] -- /usr/sbin/pppd connect '/usr/sbin/chat -r /var/log/chat -vf /etc/ppp/eisa.chat' -- /etc/ppp/options -- lock crtscts modem 115200 mtu 1500 mru 1500 noauth /dev/modem debug user [username] defaultroute noipdefault -- /etc/rc.d/rc.firewall -- echo "Enabling IP MASQ, MASQ timeouts, MASQ modules and advanced firewalling" /sbin/modprobe bsd_comp echo Loading MASQ modules /sbin/modprobe ip_masq_ftp /sbin/modprobe ip_masq_irc /sbin/modprobe ip_masq_quake /sbin/modprobe ip_masq_raudio echo "Enabling IP Masqurading.." echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_dynaddr ipchains -P forward DENY ipchains -A forward -j MASQ -s 192.168.0.0/24 -d 0.0.0.0/0 echo "Extending MASQ timeouts.." # 2 hrs timeout for TCP session timeouts # 10 sec timeout for traffic after the TCP/IP "FIN" packet is received # 2 hrs timeout for UDP traffic (Important for MASQ'ed ICQ users) ipchains -M -S 7200 10 7200 echo "rc.firewall done." -- PLEASE HELP! _______________________________________________ Masq maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Admin requests can be handled at http://www.indyramp.com/masq-list/ -- THIS INCLUDES UNSUBSCRIBING! or email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] PLEASE read the HOWTO and search the archives before posting.
