Re: ping: sendto: Operation not permitted



IP masquerading is compiled into the stock 2.0.34 hamm kernel and works
just fine for me.  Remember to install the ip masq ftp module so that
ftp works right behind the firewall.

I too installled the ipmasq package and ended up removing it.  It would 
probably be a nice, useful package if there were any docs at all for it.
You dont need this package to do ip masquerading.

Im barely knowlegable enough to get ip masqing working on my own system, 
so instead of offering specific advice, I refer you to the How-To and
the ipfwadm man page.
