    what did you mean rcfirewall stop?
    Is this a script ? my stop script closes the box.
    You might try flushing all the rules and resetting them to the default ACCEPT , then logging EVERYTHING and see what the logs say
    Does "iptables -V " show you FOWARDING is being dropped?
    what does your routing table look like?

    Oh, and don't forget
    # Dynamic IP users: SLIP, PPP, or DHCP leave this enabled
    echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_dynaddr

    ok, let me put it another way. Let us forget all about iptables and firewalling. Let us just concentrate on gettin the packages from eth0 to eth1 ! eth0 = internal LAN, eth1 = external LAN. Forget the firewalls and all the rules it has, i want to forward packages from the internal lan (ETH0) to the external LAN (ETH1), or do i HAVE to have iptables running?

    And @ soggy, the error message i am getting when i ping is network unreachable or destination unreachable

    There is a few help files that will help you to get an better understanding of your problem in hands.
    http://www.linux-mag.com/2001-05/routing_03.html
    That site can give you more info on your Routing probelm with your eth0 internal and eth1 external problem if you cant get them to talk with each other.The other problem for your IP-masquradeing/IP Forwarding problem you can get an better picture how to set it up with this info on this site.
    http://en.tldp.org/HOWTO/IP-Masquerade-HOWTO/

    I think those will come handy to you when you are configureing your LAN.
    Post up your Routeing table.There might be an conflict that makes one of the eth's not reckoning internal from external.

    Hello everyone again..... I finally did it, and i also setup my iptables on the box and it works just fine. I installed squid on the FW box and its forwarding http, ftp via proxy (which is more secure than masq anyways). I want to thank all of you who have helped me here and have posted. Your all great peeps. Keep up the good work and thanx ever so much.
