Write now  I am using masquerading to get outside from my local network
and it works fine.
I installed new package    ipportfw*.deb

"Description of ipportfw:    IP Port Forwarding
  This package contains a tool to forward connections to hosts on your
  private network. Private networks are usually masqueraded and cannot
  be reached from the Internet. IP Port Forwarding makes it possible to
  make individual ports on the private networks reachable from the
outside.
  IP Port Forwarding does address rewriting for that purpose and is much

  faster and cleaner than any redirection program I have seen.
  You need to have either a kernel version 2.1.80 <= x <= 2.1.90 or
apply
  the supplied patch for 2.0.3[2345].  For kernels >= 2.1.90, please see
the
  ipmasqadm package."

when I added ipportfw in my  /etc/init.d/network   I got a message

vcnet# ipportfw -L
Could not open /proc/net/ip_portfw
Are you sure you have Port Forwarding installed?

or

vcnet# ipportfw -C
ipfwadm: setsockopt failed: Protocol not available

I did compile everything masquerading requires in kernel and
installed helper modules.

What could be a problem here?
I am using debian/slink ( it is still unstable ) could that be a
problem?
Thanks.
