Always using the same subnet on both NIC's. My bet is, given your arp table, that you want a /24 subnet mask, ie, 255.255.255.0. So try this and tell me what happens: # ifconfig eth0 90.0.0.89 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 90.0.0.255 # ifconfig eth1 90.0.0.88 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 90.0.0.255 > At this time, the machine simply serves HTTP and FTP.

The idea of a firewall/router is to have one interface on a private subnet (say, 10.0.0.0/24) and another on a public subnet (your 90.0.0.0/24 for instance.) Then you "route" between them. jas -- Jason Van Patten AOL IM: Jason VP
