I am trying to figure this out - I have slackware 4.0 upgraded to the
2.2.12 kernel

In the FAQ (v 1.78) for 2.2.x kernels:

  * IP: ipautofw masq support (EXPERIMENTAL)
(CONFIG_IP_MASQUERADE_IPAUTOFW) [N/y/m/?]
         - NO:  IPautofw is a legacy method of port forwarding.  It is
mainly a hack which is 
                better handled by per-protocol modules.  NOT recommended.

       * IP: ipportfw masq support (EXPERIMENTAL)
(CONFIG_IP_MASQUERADE_IPPORTFW) [Y/m/n/?]
         - YES: Enables IPPORTFW.  

It does seem however, that for lots of apps listed in
http://www.tsmservices.com/masq/ (specifically Netmeeting at
http://www.tsmservices.com/masq/detailform.php3?132 ) it requires autofw.
Some programs require something like:
ipmasqadm autofw -A -r tcp 1024 65535

becuase it does not seem possible to put a range of ports into ipportfw, it
would seem that I need to write/hack something. Or is there a way to get
autofw working with the 2.2.12. I tried loading IPautofw as a module, but
that shut down everything. (ppp would connect, but I would not
see/ping/nslookup/ftp/telnet anything even from console). 

Any pointers appreciated.

Thanks
