I have had a similiar problem when I had to plug a Windows computer into the same switch as the LTSP's are attached. I believe you need to edit /etc/sysctl.conf and uncomment as follows:
# Uncomment the next line to enable packet forwarding for IPv4 net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 This will allow the terminal server to act as a router for machines behind the terminal servers NIC. You will also need a static route entry in your internet connected router (I assume 192.168.1.1) to route packets for 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.1.25. --- On Mon, 1/12/09, Gavin McCullagh <[email protected]> wrote: > From: Gavin McCullagh <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: Firefox as local app and networking > To: [email protected] > Date: Monday, January 12, 2009, 5:11 AM > Hi, > > On Sun, 11 Jan 2009, M Rathburn wrote: > > > Edubuntu 8.10 amd64 > > > > I want to try to run Firefox as a local app on thin > clients to see if things > > can be sped up (right clicks, listboxes, etc.).
