You need ncurses-dev as well as ncurses for make menuconfig - this has
caught a few people out, including me.
I'm using kernel 2.4.20, self-compiled.
In make menuconfig, under Networking Options --->, I have enabled:
Packet socket
Packet socket: mmapped IO
Network packet filtering
Socket filtering
Unix domain sockets
TCP/IP networking
Possibly not all of this is needed - mmapped IO for example - but it
doesn't hurt.
Then in the submenu IP: Netfilter Configuration ---> are a whole wad
of options, some of which are needed. Not knowing precisely which I
would need and which not, I enabled the whole lot as modules.
For setting up the masquerading, see the thread "modem / pon / serial
problems", in which my problems were sorted out.
