Thanks for looking into it but I didn't say rc.local didn't work. I said configuring IP masquerading in there as the server guide says doesn't work. We shouldn't recommend it if it doesn't work by default.

An alternative is to configure IP masquerading in /etc/network/interfaces so having something like this in the stanza of the interface in question:

up /etc/init.d/masquerading-script start

or something.
