If you're talking about PAT rules, they can be set directly from the server-manager (Security -> Port forward). Under the hood, those rules end in /etc/rc.d/init.d/masq. For NAT, there's a single rule, hardcoded in /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/rc.d/init.d/masq/40masqLAN (which is: masqerade outbound IP to the external interface's IP). Depends on what you want to achieve :-)

Thank you very much for this perfect answer ! (I was actually looking for the PAT)

Do you know what are the templates that generate the port forwarding in /etc/rc.d/init.d/masq ?

I don't find them as 40masqLAN for the NAT.

Port forwarding are handled by those templates:

/etc/e-smith/templates/etc/rc.d/init.d/masq/42SetupPortForwarding
/etc/e-smith/templates/etc/rc.d/init.d/masq/91adjustPortForward

ahem..

you'd tell us what you are trying to achieve (your problem, not your solution), what you did and how you did it.. :-)

"I don't see the port forwarding I created in this files" is quite useless for us, isn't it?

Hi,
I want to find the PAT configuration of a broken server
I think I can read the disk by removing it from the machine and I would like to find this information somewhere on the disk.

so you need the portforward_* files you find in /home/e-smith/db/ dir on the broken server's hd

thank you
