Mmm... that confrms what I was thinking :)  I've got a broken IPtables 
installation.   The docs that I'm looking at suggest that NAT may still be a 
bit wobbly.  That's the one that I'm looking at.  When I do 'iptables -L'  I 
get an error message which says that either the kernel or IPtables needs to 
be upgraded.  When I do that I get the same message and then another that 
says that NAT isn't working.   Tried 2.4.0 and 2.4.2 and 2.4.4 kernels with 
several versions of IPtables. 

Think I'll go back to IPchains again.  I haven't got time to fix broken code 
that I only half understand.   

Thanks


Richard
