I'm having a problem with secure web sites on my home lan. I am using kernel 2.2 and have my ipchains set up like so. echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward ipchains -P forward DENY ipchains -A forward -i ppp0 -j MASQ i can't get into secure sites, like my bank, from behind the gateway. but the gateway computer can get to these these sites. its just not routing the secure packets. is there a rule i need to add to ipchains? thanks eric
