I am attempting to configure a vps as a nat gateway for a openvpn server running in the vps.

How much of the iptables support is there within a VPS?
Should I expect a full support or limited?
If limited can there be something placed on the wiki that states just how much support there is?

I have read through many documents that seem to give the impression there is complete firewall support inside a vps

I am using 2.6.16 testing kernel.
I have compiled every module that relates to iptables networking into the kernel.

I am presently using shorewall to configure my iptables rules but seem to have a complete failure to setup a basic natted vpn service using shorewall.


Here is the output of shorewall show capabilities.

Shorewall has detected the following iptables/netfilter capabilities:
NAT: Not available
Packet Mangling: Available
Multi-port Match: Available
Extended Multi-port Match: Not available
Connection Tracking Match: Not available
Packet Type Match: Not available
Policy Match: Not available
Physdev Match: Not available
Packet length Match: Available
IP range Match: Not available
Recent Match: Not available
Owner Match: Not available
Ipset Match: Not available
CONNMARK Target: Not available
Connmark Match: Not available
Raw Table: Not available
IPP2P Match: Not available
CLASSIFY Target: Not available
Extended REJECT: Available
Repeat match: Not available
MARK Target: Not available
Mangle FORWARD Chain: Available

I have been using shorewall for about six years now and have a good grasp of how to setup shorewall, so I am confident that my configurations are correct.

TIA for the responses.
