I have been trying for months to do IP Masquerading on my multia.  I
have no problems with Intel machines but can NOT for the life of me
make it work on my multia.  Anyone currnetly doing this?  Any
suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

I think you need to be a little more specific. Which
kernel are you using? Which distribution? What is
failing etc, etc....

When my UDB was connected to the net via modem, it did IP Masq just fine.  But
I've heard that the ipfwadm package in RedHat 5.1 is broken, so you have to
get the one from 5.0 and "rpm -ivh --force" it on.

I have tried kernels 2.0.30, 2.0.32 and 2.0.35.  I can get them all to
compile but when I run

ipfwadm -F -a accept -m -S 192.168.1.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0

I get

ipfwadm: setsockopt failed: Protocol not available.

I am running Debian 2.0

Then you are not running a kernel with ip_masq compiled in.

I had the same problem with my alphastation 233/300 running RedHat 5.1  with
a 2.0.35 kernel...
After a long search i found out that recompiling ipfwadm is the only
solution...
for me it was neccesary to change "u_int32_t" to "unsigned long" in ip_fw.h
found in the includes directory
now everything works fine with me.....

Good luck

ipmasq is part of the experimental kernel options... make
sure you have enabled all those ipmasq stuff...

I'm using 1.2.124 on my alcor with "ipmasq" package.  works
like a charm :).  Do mail me if you want my kernel config.

I'm pretty surprised that Manoj's "kernel-package" works
like a charm here too (like it did in i386) :).
