remote kernel building is cool.... we do it here at our shop.. But to think of what kind of beafy ass cluster you would have to do this 'online' is scary.... Not too mention trust relationship between that host site and the downloadee... hehe If you wanted to you could compile a DDoS client really easy....

You also:
(1) Can ping the ppp0 IP address from the Win
box? If you can't, then you don't have the
Win box's routing set up properly. You just
need to make the masq box the default gateway
on the Win box.
(2) Have configured the masq box to ACCEPT
input and output packets appropriately on
all interfaces? That is the default, so try
doing an "ipchains -F" before the rules above;
that will flush -all- chains. If that doesn't
work, try doing "ipchains -A input -j ACCEPT",
"ipchains -A output -j ACCEPT".
If that doesn't work, you probably don't have
forwarding enabled in the kernel, so you'll
need to build one.
Hmm. A lot people probably don't want to do
that. How about a web service where you configure
your kernel and it builds it for you and
emails you a .tgz file?
