Well, now I am kinda confused, becasue I did what Joe said (thx Joe!!) and
now the thing is working!!??
So, just to clarify, what exaclty is the "masquerading?" (I will RTFM in the
meantime.)
My setup is:
client - 192.168.168.5
director - 192.168.168.2
real - 192.168.168.3
I did as described by joe's e-mail and my previous postings, and this works,
i.e., when I browse to 192.168.168.2, I get the 192.168.168.3 website. If I
try to browse 192.168.168.3 directly, it hangs.
Perhaps I misunderstood - Please clarify.
Ivan
