Hi,Which one did you try? The MASQURADE one?
I recently set up a Red Hat 9 box that is going to take over as my gateway, but I'm having problems. Currently I have a Red Hat 7.3 box doing the job (DHCP server, IPChains, packet forwarding, etc.). I don't know too much about IPTables. I tried using the HOWTO on LDP, but haven't had any success. Can someone point me to a good howto for this? Thanks.
I based my firewall around that one (the more secure example in that text).
What don't you understand? I modified it before use, but if you simply cut and paste that into your script, it should work off the bat...
I just added some NETBIOS blocking.
Regards, Ed.
Okay, I'm close. Both NIC's are up and running fine. Can reach the box from internal via eth1, DHCP is working (assigns IP's to boxes), DNS is working, (internal boxes can find hosts), can get out to the net on local machine via eth0. However, internal boxes cannot get the net. I can resolve things like www.yahoo.com from a box on the network, but http requests time out, and I can't ping anything on the outside (even though the local machine can do this). Any ideas?
Okay, problem solved. All this time beating my head against the desk, and I didn't have ip_forwarding enabled. DUH!
