It should be 10.0.0.254. Also, can sumida ping the > world? I suspect yes since you have the correct default gateway set. No, that's not it. The client default GW is set to 10.0.0.254, and the client can ping 10.0.0.254. Similary, sumida the proxy server can ping the client and can ping the outside world. The only ping that isn't working is client to outside world via proxy server. So somewhere in that proxy server box is a setting that is keeping traffic from flowing. Just in case, I also executed "iptables -F" just to clear all of the tables, and I still can't forward an ip packet from client to the world via the proxy server. Are there any other settings that I'm missing? There must be one, little one out there ... Thanks, Kevin -- Kevin Coyner mailto: kevin@rustybear.com GnuPG key: 1024D/8CE11941
