Hello: I am using iptables to masquerade my machines behind my DSL connection. I am trying to access a samba share on a remote machine. When I try to connect to the samba share with my computer plugged into my hub (and therefore masqueraded by my linux router), I cant connect to the share. But, if I plug my computer directly into the DSL modem, I have no problems with samba. So, it looks like samba does not work from a masqueraded machine. Has anyone been able to set this up? Thanks, Neil. -- Neil Aggarwal JAMM Consulting, Inc. (972) 612-6056, http://www.JAMMConsulting.com Custom Internet Development Websites, Ecommerce, Java, databases

I am running a freshly-installed RedHat 7.3 distribution. Are there instructions on setting this up on a RedHat 7.3 machine? Thanks, Neil. -- Neil Aggarwal JAMM Consulting, Inc.
