Still not working :(

ip_forward and ip_dynaddr are on:

  [root]# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
  1
  [root]# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_dynaddr
  1

Ethertap is configured:

  [root@]# ifconfig tap0
  tap0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr FE:FD:00:00:00:00
            inet addr:192.168.1.1 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
            UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
            RX packets:123 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
            TX packets:25 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
            collisions:0 txqueuelen:0
          
Masquerading is set up:

  [root]# ipchains -n -L forward
  Chain forward (policy DENY):
  target prot opt source destination ports
  MASQ all ------ 192.168.1.0/24 0.0.0.0/0 n/a

netdev in molrc is set to tap0.

MacOS TCP/IP is set up as indicated above, along with dns from
resolv.conf.

I can't get anywhere from MacOS, either by name or by number. I'm
running MacOS 9.0.4, with OT 2.6.1.

I have very strict firewall rules in place in linux, but I'm not
seeing any indication that the firewall is blocking the MacOS packets.
Could this be the problem?
