What
should I do to masquerade HTTP for my local network ?
First be
sure you have an output service for HTTP to the internet (see below).
You need
both an input service for your local network interface, and a masquerading
service :
Select "Services | New input service".
In the first combo box, select your local network interface.
In the second combo box, select ACCEPT.
In the third combo box, select "tcp" protocol.
Select the "Used by masquerading" checkbox (This input
is used to masquerade internet access).
Select "Service / port" radio button, then type in 80
or select "www(80)" in the combo box.
Click OK.
Next select "Services | New forward service".
In "Interface to
relay from", select your local network interface.
In "Interface to forward to", select your internet network
interface.
Policy "MASQ", protocol "tcp", service/port
"www(80)".
Click OK.
Apply changes with the File menu.

I've
done a new output and it then appears
in inputs ?
The GUI displays firewall
state from system current state. If a service authorizes all protocols
from all ports or to all ports, then the rules matching engine considers
it as an input service.

I
followed instructions but it doesn't work !
Be sure you authorize
/ forward domain service (udp 53). If you don't, names can't be
resolved and WWW service, for example, is likely to not work properly.
