Check in Linuxconf. I think IP forwarding is disabled by default.

Subject: Redhat Alpha - ipfwadm not working correctly?
I have set up a simple gateway using a Pentium 90 running Redhat Intel 5.1 and
have had no problems with it. However I have recently aquired a DEC UDB and am
trying to set this machine up to be my new gateway machine, and am having lots
of problems. I was finally able to get the kernel to recompile and added in
support for ip masquerading, and firewalling, and everything else that I think
I need. The problem is using the ipfwadm command. On my intel box it worked
perfectly using the following commands in my rc.local file
/sbin/ipfwadm -F -p deny
/sbin/ipfwadm -F -a m -S 192.168.1.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0
However using the same command on the Alpha machine, the first command works
fine. The second gives the following error:
ipfwadm: socket creation failed: Operation not permitted
I have looked in the man file and the help file and have tried several
combinations of switches. Please help as I am at my wits end.
Thanks,
Thorin Hanson
