 I have a machine with linux 1.2.5, and two ethernet cards. It works as a 
router for my lab. eth0 is for the internal network, and eth1 for external.
I will consider 4 machines: lab -> machine in my internal network.
                            router -> the linux router box
                            outside -> some machines outside the lab connected 
                                       by network.
                                       (not all machines, some work and some 
                                        don't)
                            dial -> machine outside the lab and outside the
                                    router domain connected by modem. (ppp)
 It's a bit complicated, so i will explain by examples and replies from the 
machine.
 Everything I will explain happens with finger, telnet and ftp. Of couse, the
error messages are different.

 From lab to router                           -> works
 From router to lab                           -> works
 From lab to outside                          -> works
 From outside to lab                          -> works
 From lab to dial                             -> works
 From dial to lab                             -> works
 From router to outside                       -> don't work
        error message: connection closed by foreign host (telnet)
 From outside to router                       -> work 
 From router to dial                          -> work
 From dial to router                          -> don't work
        error message: connection closed by foreign host (telnet) 
     Any ideas? Thanks in advance
