internet access



If you're using IPChains for masquerading, use the Quality of Service
commands as given in the IPChains FAQ to ensure that interactive data
(e.g. telnet) gets higher priority than non-interactive data
(e.g. ftp).  Of course, it's a moot question which category HTTP falls 
into.

The commands I use are:

ipchains -A output -p tcp -d 0.0.0.0/0 telnet -t 0x01 0x10
ipchains -A output -p tcp -d 0.0.0.0/0 ftp -t 0x01 0x10
ipchains -A output -p tcp -s 0.0.0.0/0 ftp-data -t 0x01 0x08
ipchains -A output -p tcp -s 0.0.0.0/0 http -t 0x01 0x08

which allows telnet to run a bit faster at the expense of ftp and
http.

Hope this helps,
