| Actually, I've been trying to get this to work too. I have a
| firewall/gateway machine set up (running PMFirewall, natch!), and am
| trying to access IRC from a masq'd machine behind the firewall.
|
| I have enabled "auth" in /etc/inetd.conf (i.e., no "#" in front of it. In
| the pmfirewall.rules.masq script, I modified the following:
|
| "/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_irc >/dev/null 2>&1" was changed to
|
| "/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_irc" (all without the quotes, of course!)
|
| Just to ensure all of these settings would take effect, I then issued the
| command "/etc/rc.d/inittab/network restart" so that inetd.conf and
| pmfirewall would both restart, and the change take effect. (And yes, the
| approproariate modules all do reside in the ipv4 directory!)
I think we may have mutual answers.
I need to make the modifcation that you made to my pmfirewall.rules.masq. I
can see that now.
But I think the auth line in your inetd.conf should NOT have the auth line,
otherwise the Linux machine will be handling IDENT requests from remote
servers.
Please, correct me if I'm wrong....
