Depends on what you want to do. If you want to share access to one line amongst many machines with private IPs, I believe you need natd. If you just want to pipe a bunch of machines through one gateway, you shouldn't even need a proxy. The only good uses for a proxy are filtering information, or caching it. Is there a specific reason you don't want ipfirewall in your kernel? On Fri, Mar 09, 2001 at 10:18:45PM -0500, G.
