Hi,

Does the script you posted run without errors?

Besides that, from what I can gather:
- "$OINTERFACE" is the interface connected to the internet
- "$IINTERFACE" is the interface on the internal network

The script shown has the rule,
Code:
#Allow client to route through via NAT (Network Address Translation)
$IPTABLES -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o $IINTERFACE -j MASQUERADE
eend $?

Which is saying do post-route NAT on packets coming out of $IINTERFACE using maquerading, but isn't $IINTERFACE the internal interface? Hopefully you can change $IINTERFACE to $OINTERFACE in that line and have it working.
Code:
#Allow client to route through via NAT (Network Address Translation)
$IPTABLES -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o $OINTERFACE -j MASQUERADE
eend $?

Hope that helps.

zaftro

since that script was using a default /etc/firewall.rules i am trying to edit this but i need a little help
http://www.malibyte.net/iptables/scripts/firewall.conf.iptables-generic
Code:
 root # /etc/init.d/firewall start
 * Starting firewall...
 * Restoring Firewall rules...
Bad argument `VERBOSE=1'
Try `iptables-restore -h' or 'iptables-restore --help' for more informat  [ !! ]                                                                          [ !! ]
