Alejandro I've been doing a similar thing and you can use ppp0 and it'll work no problems. I believe that you should use MASQUERADE if you are likely to have your external ppp0 IP address change. Hope that answers the question!

Just one question: Do I have to use in my firewall script the IP of my ADSL interface or just do I have to use the "ppp0" variable and don't care of the IP address assignment changes ??? Thnks again.
