Please Help Me set up a RH8 router My current setup cable modem -----> eth1--rh8--eth0 ----->win xp
Windows XP and RH8 can ping each other, but when eth0 is active on RH8 I can not surf the internet with either RH8 or XP. When eth0 is inactive I CAN surf the internet with RH8, but of course cannot ping XP. Whats the deal? What do I set the DNS on Windows to? What do I set the Default Gateway on eth0 to? Remember eth1 is set by DHCP. My RH8 Settings ----------------------------- eth1 ------- DHCP: up and working perfectly eth0 ------- ip address: 10.0.0.1 using rh gui tools (neat) Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway: (Blank) Other Settings -------------- *Turn on packet fwd. (edit /etc/sysctl.conf, to net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1) At shell, root: iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth1 -j MASQUERADE iptables -A INPUT -i eth1 -m state --state NEW,INVALID -j DROP iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -m state --state NEW,INVALID -j DROP /sbin/service iptables save *Restarted iptables (coulnd't figure out the gui way so used command lines) /etc/init.d/iptables stop /etc/init.d/iptables start Windows XP ---------------------------- IP: 10.0.0.2 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway: 10.0.0.1 Preffered DNS: (Blank) Alternate DNS: (Blank) thanks to gh for previous help -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
