Internet connection share with iptables

[Christian Stefanescu]

I'd recommend Firestarter for a painless config:
http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php It is a very capable
GUI for configuring anything iptables-related.

If you still want to tinker with iptables, I recommend you use this site:
http://easyfwgen.morizot.net/gen/ It basically generates a script
personalized for your settings.

Good luck with these!
