quake server behind linux firewall....... please help!!!

[Tom]

Hi, I'm trying to run a quake server behind a linux firewall. i'm able
to connect to the server within my internal LAN with no problem. if someone
from the internet tries connecting to it, it gets as far as the connection
getting accepted but then just halts there and goes no farther. This also
happens when my internal machine tries connecting to an internet quake
server ( just halts at connection accepted). UT works fine. I am loading
the module:
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_quake ports=26000,27000,27910,27960

and also port forwarding with:
ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -L external IP 26000 -R 192.168.1.2 26000
ipmasqadm portfw -a -P udp -L external IP 26000 -R 192.168.1.2 26000

Anything else I need to do?

Thanks

Look at your UDP settings...I believe quake uses udp packets, not
tcp/ip. Your firewall is probably filtering them out...maybe...
What firewall are you running?
