Not sure AFIK, for MIRC to work use ip forwarding
and set default gateway etc.
a simple way is add
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
to your /etc/rc.d/rc.local file (if you use RedHat Linux)
then use ipchains to invoke the following
/sbin/ipchains -F
/sbin/ipchains -P forward DENY
/sbin/ipchains -A forward -s <ur_ip>/<ur_netmask> -j MASQ
u can put the above towards the end of the rc.local file.
this will enable ip forwarding.
Now setup your client machines, to use the ip of your this
machine as default gateway. Do not forget to add
a DNS server in the client machines. Better is to run a caching
nameserver on this linux machine and point all lan to
this machine for name server query.
better read
ip-chains howto
ip-masquerding howto
net howto
(I think the spellings of the howtos are wrong)..
