Also, ip_forward has the value of 1. But I cannot find >"/proc/net/ip_masq/portfw". How can I enable portfowarding on Slackware >2.2.16? > >Joe > First, you should upgrade to the latest kernel, as 2.2.16 has a vulnerability. Then, for portfw to work with ipmasqadm, you have to compile it either in the kernel or as a module. If you compile it as a module and you do not use kmod to load modules on demand, you have to manually insert it before doing a port forwarding with ipasqadm.
