You'll now want to do: iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j SNAT --to $EXTIP where eth0 is the interface going out to the Internet and $EXTIP is the public IP on that interface.

Matos [mailto:pocm@mega.ist.utl.pt] Sent: Sunday, February 16, 2003 9:00 AM To: netfilter@lists.netfilter.org Subject: Command not working in latest version Hi all, I've changed from my old distribution to a new one that comes with iptables 1.2.7a. I have iptables in the kernel (2.4.20) and I've loaded the modules iptable_nat, ipt_REDIRECT and ipt_MASQUERADE. I had in my previous distributions the following lines: iptables -t nat -F iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE This would give total access from lan attached to eth0 to the internet through my computer. But now, line 1 executes ok, line 2 gives: iptables: Invalid Argument If I do : iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 everything runs ok but lan has still no access to the internet as expected. What's happening, any ideas? Best regards, Paulo
