7.34. ( Netstat ) - I'm trying to use the NETSTAT command to show my Masqueraded
connections but its not working
There might be a problem with the "netstat" program in 2.0.x-based Linux
distros. After a Linux reboot, running "netstat -M" works fine but after a
MASQed computer runs some successful ICMP traffic like ping, traceroute,
etc., you might see something like:
masq_info.c: Internal Error `ip_masquerade unknown type'.
The workaround for this is to use the "/sbin/ipfwadm -M -l" command. You
will also notice that once the listed ICMP masquerade entries timeout,
"netstat" works again.
