RH9 and IPTABLES
 

I'm attempting to setup some IP forwarding using iptables. I have used many scripts already setup just needed to plug my data in. Currently I'm using Arnos IPTABLES script. My goal is to setup forward so that I can use an internal VPN server (Win 2K Server) I have setup the ports needed in the scripts but it doesn't seem its getting through. I was play with Xinetd and found that I could forward ports to another server using the webmin interface. That seem to forward some ports but its not forwarding the GRE protocol properly so authentication is not taking place.

Why hasnt iptables worked correctly. I can open and close ports but I can't forward them.

If possible can I use Xinetd to forward the GRE protocol? I can forward TCP 1723.

I have the most up to date fixes/kernel according to the Red Hat site.

Thanks for your help!
