Hi,

What operating system are you using? Linux/Solaris/MacOS/Windows?

If Linux and especially RedHat9, you will need to enable
ip_forwarding. In /etc/sysctl.conf adjust:

    # Controls IP packet forwarding
    net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1

The POSTROUTING and PREROUTING are disabled if net.ipv4.ip_forward is 0.
