Hi mates,

I have recently upgraded my box from Debian Etch to Lenny. The process worked fine broadly speaking. However, IP masquerade stopped working correctly since then. If I do a small test from a computer in my LAN, I get this http://pastebin.com/m2d03b79a As you seen everything works fine, but no answer is received for the HTTP request. The "external world" is partially accessible.

However, just by rebooting and choosing the kernel 2.6.18, the issue is solved: http://pastebin.com/m7ab4a89b 

I have spent more than 3 days doing all kind of tests, because I thought that there was something wrong in my shorewall configuration. After much trial and error, I thought the kernel might be the culprit, and, as you see, it seems to be.

Some more details about my box: AMD K6 333Mhz - 256 MB - 4 GB hard disk - Ext3 fs
I have also attached two dmesg files including a trace of each kernel, just in case it might be helpful.

I look forward to having news from you soon. 
Regards.
