Special modules were always required for instance to fix irc and ftp in order to work through ip_masq. Hardware NAT may not have this problem. The thing is that some firewalls/routers are really older (very much older) linux systems using ip_masq and ip_chains, and may not be setup properly with the fix modules for ftp and irc. So, its something to look into. -- Kind regards, M Harris <>< -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
