Re: FC4 IP Masquerading

Hi All,

After doing a bit more looking around, I noticed from the error output
that perhaps there should not be a space between the forward slash and
the j switch. So I did this, but received a different error ... my
terminal output is included below.

[root@localhost tony]# /sbin/iptables -D POSTROUTING -t nat -s
192.168.0.0/24 -d ! 192.168.0.0/24 \-j MASQUERADE
iptables: No chain/target/match by that name

Any ideas on where to go from here?

Thanks for your help.

Cheers, 
Tony
