Hey all, I'm trying to set up a gateway on my RH 9.0 box for a home network isp ppp sharing; its ip is 192.168.0.2; here's what I did:
sysctl.conf: #added net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1 rc.masquerading: #created today /sbin/iptables -F /sbin/iptables -F -t nat /sbin/iptables -F -t mangle /sbin/iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ppp0 -j MASQUERADE rc.local: #added /etc/rc.d/rc.masquerading In the xp box, I manually set the dns ip for my usual isp's, and the right gateway, all that. Set up Internet Explorer to use a proxy, all set there too, for all I know; just it doesn't work - I don't get access from xp. One other thing is that the xp computer (192.168.0.1) is set as the default gateway for the linux box, since I'd been using it as so and hope to be able to keep it. Some more outputs(with my isp ppp connection up), too bad I can't manage to increase the line size in evolution: [EMAIL PROTECTED] rc.d]$ /sbin/route Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 200.216.95.235 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0 192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 169.254.0.0 * 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo default 200.216.95.235 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 ppp0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] rc.d]$ /sbin/ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:02:2A:B8:40:A9 inet addr:192.168.0.2 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:34685 errors:26 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:27 TX packets:34636 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 RX bytes:3049106 (2.9 Mb) TX bytes:3037944 (2.8 Mb) Interrupt:10 Base address:0xc000 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:92 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:92 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:5992 (5.8 Kb) TX bytes:5992 (5.8 Kb) ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol inet addr:200.151.49.70 P-t-P:200.216.95.235 Mask:255.255.255.255 UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:727 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:834 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:3 RX bytes:534383 (521.8 Kb) TX bytes:113597 (110.9 Kb) Any help much appreciated; -- Herculano de Lima Einloft Neto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
