andre: I think not. except if there is a special bind to support ip masq.

Personally, i prefer ip masq over socks because some old client software
does'nt support socks and you don't have to configure anything on the
client internet software. In my setup, netscape for win95(client) can even
use web proxies for faster access.
I suggest you get the kernel 2.0.30 because the patches to make ip masq
work in linux has been incorporated in the kernel as modules.
