Timeout using ipchains

Hi everybody

I think i have a problem with ipchains on a 2.4.18-6mdk linux. I say
that i think because i don't know where the problem is.

The problem is:

- I have a firewall/router configured to provide internet access to my
LAN. I also have another LAN site connected with a point-to-point line.

The traffic is routed through internet or the other site LAN by this
machine. My problem is that very often i obtain errors on the connection
to the other LAN site, saying that the connection is lost.

This only occurs when the traffic is routed by this gateway (my LAN
default gateway), not through the real router. If i configure an static
route on a client the connection hasn't any disconnection.

I suspect that there is something wrong with the ipchains firewall or
the routing protocol.

Any idea would be very appreciated.

Thanks in advance
