My understanding is that iptables is "backward compatible"
with ipchains scripting. so using your old scripting shouldn't
be much of a problem.

However, this also depends on whether ipchains support was included in your
version of iptables (as a wrapper).

also, tolet you know, I had to edit your original message below as you sent it
HTML and uswestmail doesn't handle html very well.

Hey Guys,

I installed Mandrake 8.0 Beta 3 today, and 
unfortunally they dont use ipchains anymore. They use 
iptables. But, I'm not familiar with it. Can someone 
help me out.

Right now, my ipchains look like:
ipchains -A forward -s 90.0.0.0/0 -d 0.0.0.0/0 -j MASQ

Which says, all ips 90.0.0.0 to 90.0.0.* can go 
anywhere (as most of you know)

If anyone knows the exact syntax to make iptables 
do the same, please let me know. It's a work machine, and nobody can use 
the internet until I get iptables to MASQ!

Thanks in advance,

Tyler
