Good work, muzo. Will give it a try.

If an old masq-mgr is installed, rpm -e theoldone, then install new one or can i use --replacepkgs?

Hi,

I prefer rpm -e. Because somtimes, templates aren't updated (why? i don't know).

BUT, before removing it, save your masq db file located in /home/e-smith/masq.
[root]# cd /home/e-smith/masq/
Just copy masq db file :
[e-smith]# cp masq masq.old (not sure about command line)

Now, you remove the contrib
[e-smith]# rpm -e e-smith-masq-manager-0.1

Rename masq.old :
[e-smith]# mv masq.old masq

Install new contrib
[e-smith]# rpm -Uvh /{path to your rpm directory}/e-smith-masq-manager-0.1-4.noarch.rpm

And go to your favorite server-manager, and your old configuration will be here.

Hi,

I have a return from hpe, how tell me having a problem with my contrib on 6.0.
In fact, it seems that masq script are strictly different. Template files aren't realy different, But they don't have the same names as templates on 5.6.

I'm on the way to create a contrib dedicated to 6.0.

Stay tuned  ;-)

Hi all,

So, I create a specific SME 6.0 contribs :
sme-6.0-masq-manager-0.1-1.noarch.rpm

Please test it  :hammer:

The difference between 5.6 and 6.0 is templates names are different.
I'll change contribs name too.

To update, remove old contribs from your sme box.
rpm -e e-smith-masq-manager-0.1.

And install new one.

I'm not sure why but when I go to the panel for a custom rule the TO DO is not anything to click on so I can not make any rules.  I have the 6.0 install so I'm not sure why it is not working.

Got any ideas for me to look at.

Hi guys,

Finished? yes and no.

Yes, because I have created all features I needed.
No, because i don't now how to create a panel, in which one, user can create all valuable iptables rules. There are too many possibilities. So i stop my developpement, and begin to think. I found no good solution.
Why?
Because i can't add a new rule in the right place in masq script, so i give up.

Ok, i must remaster my rpms to remove this panel.

I hope you will not be too disappointed by this answer.

Muzo - I think it is great work and very useful even as it is. However it would be wonderful to finish the custom rules, perhaps someone in the group can help. I would be delighted to at least discuss the problems with you. Email me at computech_systems@REMOVETHISemail.com if you want to persue this.
