I am currently working on setting up a Linux Router. I is running a firewall and DHCP server and I am currently having troubles setting up IP Masqurading (or Network Address Translation [NAT]). I was wondering if any of you have ever used the "iptables" command to set up NAT or seen it done. I have seen it done but the howto's on doing it just suck. I know that my routing table is setup correctly so i know it is not that.

my networks I am routing between are...
Internal: 192.168.4.0/24 (eth1=192.168.4.1)
External:10.60.0.0/16 (eth0=10.60.2.11)

thanks for any and all the help once I have this linux router set up I will post my howto!
well bye guys/gals thanks again...

P.S. The 192.168.4.0/24 network can ping eth1 and eth0 but cannot ping anything on the 10.60.0.0 and get a reply but I do not get a "Destination Unreachable" I get a "Request Timed Out" so this is why i believe that it is "iptables" that I need to mess with.
