I'm having some trouble with the ipmasq firewall setup on my Debian box.

What version of debian are you using, and what kernel version? I assume you're using debian woody on a machine like that. 2.4 and 2.6 series linux kernels use iptables instead of ipmasq - my woody box doesn't have any files named "*ipmasq*" on it at all. I think the woody install defaults to 2.2, although 2.4 is an option. You could try looking in /etc/ppp - there are scripts that get run eg in ip-up.d, so maybe something in there is fiddling with the settings. John McPherson
