I got the script working. Thanks. But I am still having problems getting
outside of my network. I can ssh into my slackmachine from my windows
machine. I can view pages from apache from my windows machine. I can ssh
into my firewall from the slackmachine. I can't ssh into the slack machine
from my firewall. This is what I put in my /etc/resolve.conf
nameserver 151.201.0.39
nameserver 151.201.0.39
when I try to ping it I get Network is unreachable. It seems that it
doesn't know about the gateway. Where is that stored? I set it up with
netconfig but maybe something isn't working.

you should check your /etc/resolv.conf file and there should be a listing
such as:
nameserver <ip>
if that is listed, try and ping that ip ... that well help determine if
there is in fact any network connectivitiy.
if it's a matter of firewalling ... you should have something similar to
this rule for your firewall:
iptables -A INPUT -s <ip> -p udp --sport 53 -j ACCEPT

in linux, you'd just wanna throw whatever you want to be run on startup in
/etc/rc.d/rc.local .. you could even create your own rc.<whatever> file
and just call that file from rc.local to keep things neat and organized.
