Thumbs down Internet Connection Sharing


hey guys ,


i have this tutorial on how to share the internet with other comptures on my network, the script the tutorial gave me was :

#!/bin/sh
#
# This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts.
# You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't
# want to do the full Sys V style init stuff.

touch /var/lock/subsys/local
/etc/rc.d/rc.ipmasq
#1) Flush the rules tables.
/sbin/ipchains -F input
/sbin/ipchains -F forward
/sbin/ipchains -F output
#2) Set the MASQ timings and allow packets in for DHCP configuration
/sbin/ipchains -M -S 7200 10 60
/sbin/ipchains -A input -j ACCEPT -i eth1 -s 0/0 68 -d 0/0 67 -p udp
#3) Deny all forwarding packets except those from local network
# Masquerage those.
/sbin/ipchains -P forward DENY
/sbin/ipchains -A forward -s 192.168.0.0/24 -j MASQ
#4) Load forwarding modules for special services.
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_ftp
/sbin/ipchains ip_masq_raudio
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_cuseeme
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_irc
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_quake



and when i run the script (rc.local) it gives me this :

[root@c211-30-252-109 root]# /etc/rc.d/rc.local
ipchains: Protocol not available
ipchains: Protocol not available
ipchains: Protocol not available
ipchains: setting MASQ timeouts failed: Protocol not available
ipchains: Protocol not available
ipchains: Protocol not available
ipchains: Protocol not available
modprobe: Can't locate module ip_masq_ftp
Try `/sbin/ipchains -h' or '/sbin/ipchains --help' for more information.
modprobe: Can't locate module ip_masq_cuseeme
modprobe: Can't locate module ip_masq_irc
modprobe: Can't locate module ip_masq_quake
[root@c211-30-252-109 root]#


if you can help me fix up my internet connection sharing it would be GREATLY appreciated [ i have been trying to start up a Linux server for 2 weeks now... i finally settled with Fedora because it was easy to set up.... and now the Internet Connection sharing thingo doesnt work



EDIT : Does anyone know how to turn off the firewall so ALL the pcs in my network can connect to the internet??? i think thats the case.....

Don't double post in several forums.
This doesn't increase your chance of a good reply, it only makes the people in here annoyed and less willing to answer.

Try using the iptables command instead.

ditch the howto completely. It's obsolete.
