Subject: [Masq] @home cable not working with IP masquerading

> Hello everyone,
> I have setup my Red Hat 6.1 Linux Pentium 166 (32 ram) to IP masquerade a
cox@home cable connection using 2 of the same ethernet tulip adapters (both
Netgear FA-310tx cards). I have them configured and a weak firewall script
in etc/rc.d/rc.firewall that came from the latest IP Masquerade HOWTO. My
IP address is setup as a static, though it is actally DHCP from my @home
service, though it is always the same number. From my Linux box, I was able
to ping both the internel and externel ethernet cards as well as the
internet computers on the network. I believe that I was also able to ping
an externet IP address (as recommended in the HOWTO) because it gave the
output SOMEWHAT like the following:
> pinging 152.19.254.81 from 24.10.XXX.XXX: 84(54 ms)
> ..or something like that. the 152.19.254.81 was the internet IP address
(metalab.unc.edu) while 24.10.xxx.xxx is my externel ethernet card IP
address (from my cable @home service)-i used xxx for security reasons, for
it gave my true address. Anyways, thats all it gave, no more. after that
it just stopped, while it usually keeps going. I also tried to ping the
same externel internet IP address on an internel computer and it did not
work (timed out).
> I get legitimate output from "ifconfig" and everything else too. I
believed that my setup was correct, but now i am second guessing. So my
problem is getting ICMP masquerading working. Could you please help me in
setting this up? What should i do to finally get this working? Thank you
very much.
