Here's the readable version of the above rule: Take any udp packets with a source port of 700 going to 192.168.1.4 port 700 and send them to port 700 on this machine instead of to 182.168.1.4. Unless you have some special daemon listening on port 700 on this machine that knows what to do with the packets, I doubt this is what you wanted. The IP Masquerade Chat apps page at: http://www.tsmservices.com/masq/catlist.php3?Chat does not, unfortunately, list BuddyPhone. However, you might be able to look at the solutions for the other chat apps and see how to fix Buddyphone, or at worst put in a request for help from the maintainer of the site. Does anyone else on the IP-masq mailing list use this app? Cheers, - Bill --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Failure is not an option.
