Hi everybody...

I have set up myself a linux gateway to the most internet-services (nntp,
ftp, http, smtp, pop3) but now i have a problem.

I love ICQ :) but i can't set my linux-gateway up to route the
ICQ-(Protocol) can anybody help me???

My next problem is that i can't configure it too to route the traffic of
Morpheus, Napster and other Sharing-Tools...

If you can help me i would be very pleased...


Please excuse my poor english, i'm an austrian linux-fan...


Yours Nestroy

Hi!

German version below.

How did you do that? With a bunch of proxies?

Yes. I have an router here and ICQ works fine.

Even these programs do their job.

I think you want NAT/Masquerading for your machine.
Depending on your kernel, you should use ipchains or
iptables to set up the link.

Here the commands for iptables:

Activate masquerading:
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ppp0 -j MASQUERADE

Inactivate it:
iptables -t nat -F POSTROUTING

Don't forget to switch ip_forwarding on.

Insert your connecting device where ppp0 is mentioned.

Wie hast du das bisher gelöst? Mit einer Herde Proxies?

Ja. Ich habe hier auch einen Router und ICQ funktioniert
im Moment auch.

Auch diese Programme funktionieren.

Ich denke, du willst NAT/Masquerading für deinen Rechner
aufsetzen. Abhängig von deiner Kernelversion benötigst du
ipchains oder iptables. Hier mal die Kommandos für iptables.

Masquerading aktivieren:
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ppp0 -j MASQUERADE

Deaktivieren:
iptables -t nat -F POSTROUTING

Nicht vergessen, auch ip_forwarding einzuschalten.

Statt ppp0 mußt du das Gerät einsetzen, mit dem du dann
verbinden willst.

You can mail me if you have further questions.

Bye/Mfg,
Weber

Hi,

ICQ works fine for me. For IPChains, there's actually an ICQ module to allow
you to send/receive from ICQ.

Hope that helps.
