Hi ! Anyone have any idea how do I configure my debian box as a router for my LAN? Anyway, I'm planning to do this and please let me know if my thinking is wrong. I want to ask my ISP for 32 static IP's (203.176.38.32 - 203.176.38.64). And I'll assign xxx.33 as my Linux's IP and let t

I'm having a problem configuring dialin PPP access on my system. (Debian 1.3.1, PPPD 2.2 pl0) I've allocated a subnet of addresses to the incoming lines and tried setting the subnet mask in /etc/ppp/options to "netmask 255.255.255.224"; however, my incoming clients have netmasks of 255.255.255.0
