Thank you very much Sir
I don't know what should be done to set up the dynamic route between
eth0 and eth1, in the case of an ADSL connection.
Would you say me how to do this ?
Indeed, IP Masquerading is able to take into account all that is
required, in order to make an existing connection coming along, if this
connection was being requested from inside the lan to the external network.
However, what happens if the current involved protocol launchs a
request to, let's suppose 113 auth port inside the lan ?
There should be then a new connection coming from the outside network to
the external address of the lan, with a destination port 113, no ?
The whole problem is whether or not this kind of authentification, would
involve specifically a new incoming connection. Is it true ?
Thank you very much for your help.
Best regards.
