I'll join the list for a while.  Thanks Phil.  After running pmfirewall
start & masqstart I was able to connect with ncftp to remote ftp servers
but unable to ping.  So the ping is probably being caught by ipchains
rules.  But still unable to browse the internet from my winbox through
the linux firewall.  sit0 is not working yet.
