[NTLUG:Discuss] Firewalling Using RedHat

[Tim Willis]

I used webmin, good idea, thanks.  I should have thought of that
earlier. Now the networking is correct.  I went through lokkit and set
another machine's default gateway to the internal NIC on my RedHat box,
and it still wouldn't route.  Do I need to set up IP Masquerade on this
box as well?
