I am trying to get the following setup to work - I have in fact had it
working for quite a while, but after a recent reboot, I have not been
able to get it properly set up again:


provider

ADSL router
| n.n.220.65
| cross-over cable
V n.n.220.66
router/firewall
| n.n.220.66

V n.n.220.64/27
misc. systems


Explaining everything I've tried would take up too much space here, so
if anyone feels they can help me get this to work, I'd appreciate an
off-line contact.

Per,

If I understand what you need, you want to look at IP masquerade on
'router/firewall' so misc. systems that connect to router/firewall can
masquerade as n.n.220.66 with all responses from the ADSL router side NAT'ed
back to misc. systems on n.n.220.64. I had to do something similar with:

provider
|
V
Cable/DSL router
| n.n.6.13
|
V
router/firewall
| n.n.6.17
| (connection via 'gulp' dial-up)
V n.n.5.15
router/firewall
|
|
V n.n.5.x/24
misc systems

The key to making everything work was to set up IP masquerade with IP
tables
on router/firewall (n.n.5.15)

Sorry I can't provide the exact config, but the n.n.5.15 box is off
right now
and 20 miles away at the lake :-( Hope this helps.
