Hello all,
Sorry in advance for the long, drawn out message.
I am setting up a ip-masq box (Mandrake 6.0) with two
ethernet cards. The one connected to the ADSL modem
is fine (eth1). However, I can't get eth0 to talk to my
local network. Call the masquerade box A and the (local)
client B. I know that the local network for B is OK, as I
can ping another client box C.
Here is the routing table for A (with eth1 down)
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0
eth0
127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0
0
lo
Here is ifconfig eth0:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:A0:24:1A:D2:1A
inet addr:192.168.1.1 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1

TX packets:604 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
Interrupt:3 Base address:0x300
Here is the ifcfg-eth0 file:
DEVICE="eth0"
IPADDR="192.168.1.1"
NETWORK="192.168.1.0"
NETMASK="255.255.255.0"
ONBOOT="yes"
BOOTPROTO="none"
When I ping B from A this is part of the result of tcpdump -i eth0 on B:
11:33:41.282743 arp who-has B tell A
11:33:41.282814 arp reply B is-at 0:60:97:74:bc:14
However, I am getting no response on A.. So it appears to be a routing
problem, but I cannot for the life of me get eth0 on A to respond. BTW,
the light on the hub is on for the connection to eth0 on A .
I am at wit's end and would ever so appreciate someone pointing out
what I am missing. I have successfully set up ip-masq fine before, but am
stuck on this one. Please let me know if other config info would help.
Many thanks,
Chris
