You should probably post questions of this sort on the Shorewall list rather than on this list. If you chose to have Mandrake configure Shorewall for you, the 'loc' zone is empty and the zone for the local network is called 'masq'. The rules you need to forward PPTP traffic to the server are thus: DNAT net masq:192.168.105.1 tcp 1723 DNAT net masq:192.168.105.1 47 -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool Shoreline, \ http://shorewall.net Washington USA \ teastep@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
