Hi there!

I am at the very beginning of using iptables.

I am using the example shown in netfilter howtos.

I checked all the settings and modified to my needs, but nothing: PC's under trusted subnet can't even get hostnames resolved. I read also the iptables tutorial, explaining the rc.firewall and everything seems to be right. I have no errors during rules setup. I post the script that I am currently using:

1. Configuration options.
#

#
# 1.1 Internet Configuration.
#

INET_IFACE="eth1"

#
# 1.1.1 DHCP
#

#
# Information pertaining to DHCP over the Internet, if needed. #
# Set DHCP variable to no if you don't get IP from DHCP. If you get DHCP

# over the Internet set this variable to yes, and set up the proper IP
# address for the DHCP server in the DHCP_SERVER variable.
#

DHCP="no"
DHCP_SERVER="192.168.0.241"

#
# 1.1.2 PPPoE
#

# Configuration options pertaining to PPPoE.
#
# If you have problem with your PPPoE connection, such as large mails not

# getting through while small mail get through properly etc, you may set
# this option to "yes" which may fix the problem. This option will set a
# rule in the PREROUTING chain of the mangle table which will clamp
# (resize) all routed packets to PMTU (Path Maximum Transmit Unit).
#
# Note that it is better to set this up in the PPPoE package itself, since
# the PPPoE configuration option will give less overhead.
#

PPPOE_PMTU="no"

#
# 1.2 Local Area Network configuration.
#

# your LAN's IP range and localhost IP. /24 means to only use the first 24
# bits of the 32 bit IP address. the same as netmask 255.255.255.0
#

LAN_IP="192.168.0.241"
LAN_IP_RANGE="192.168.0.240/28"
LAN_IFACE="eth0"

#
# 1.3 DMZ Configuration.
#

#
# 1.4 Localhost Configuration.
#

LO_IFACE="lo"
LO_IP="127.0.0.1"

#
# 1.5 IPTables Configuration.
#

IPTABLES="/sbin/iptables"

#
# 1.6 Other Configuration.
#

# 3. /proc set up.
