I've been setting up a Linux machine in the hopes of getting IP-Masquerading working. To my surprise it appears from all of the documentation that I've read (SuSE manual and mini howto's) that you MUST have a static IP for Masquerading to work. Most ISP accounts in the US are of the dynamic variety when dealing with non-corporate users. As a result I would think that someone has solved this problem. Is there a particular howto out there that provides an IP-Masquerading configuration with a dynamic IP? If this can't be done, is there some other solution? SOCKS?
I remember getting that impression from the docs also. But it works with dynamic IP just fine. I'm doin it now.
I'd like to do it too, but I can't even get my SuSE 5.3 to dial in to my ISP (I'm using an external modem, but the Linux box can't seem to talk to it!)
