Re: Tribes 2 server behind NAT

[Mike McLean <libolt@libolt.net>]

Hi,

Yeah I am masquerading with the following line:

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -d \! 192.168.4.0/24 -j MASQUERADE

I've got it setup this way because I have a VPN setup between several 
locations.

I do not have logging turned on.  I suppose I should enable it.

Mike
