[Synce-devel] Masquerading

[Klaus Nitsche]

Hi all,

after connection with my WM5 Device via bluetooth to my SuSE 10.2 I get the
following error message:"Could not create masqueraded route".
The configuration "Enable Masquerading" and the path to /usr/sbin/iptables in
raki are set correct, "sudo" is enabled not to ask a password exactly as
explained in
http://synce.sourceforge.net/synce/kde/synce-kde-advanced-configuration.php.

Here the syslog:

PWD=/home/<user> ; USER=root ; COMMAND=COMMAND=/usr/sbin/iptables -t nat -A
POSTROUTING -s -d 0.0.0.0/0 -j MASQUERADE

The source parameter (-s) in the iptables-call is empty, although raki knows
already the ip-address of the mobile device.

Calling the command manually completly (COMMAND=/usr/sbin/iptables -t nat -A
POSTROUTING -s 192.168.100.8 -d 0.0.0.0/0 -j MASQUERADE) works fine.

Hope, someone can help me.
Thanks

Klaus
