The six lines I gave you ARE the script. Try the bottom four lines manually first, substituting the IP Addresses. If it works, then put all six lines into a script, set the addresses, and make the script executable. When you want to turn on the port forwarding, you execute the script. If you want to permanently keep that configuration, and always forward the ports, then run "/etc/init.d/iptables save" which will save your configuration in /etc/sysconfig/iptables so that next time the machine boots, it will automatically load the rules. -- David ----------------------------------------------------------------------- There are only 10 kinds of people in this world, those who understand binary, and those who don't.
