This way was worked fine for me....:)
windows:ip address 192.168.1.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway: 192.168.1.1 (linux box ip address)
enable dns (linux box hostname + linux box domainname) ip 192.168.1.1
internet explorer + mail = access through LAN
linux box:
new kernel with masquearding + ip forwarding enabledip address 192.168.1.1
no default route
/etc/hosts.allow 192.168.1.2 ???
Check that ipmasquerading is running (cd to /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ ;
cat ip_forward should return a 1)
if not then enter: echo '1' > ip_forward and put this command in
/etc/rc.d/rc.local.
Set up the masquerading rules, e.g.:
ipfwadm -I -f
ipfwadm -O -f
ipfwadm -F -f
ipfwadm -F deny
ipfwadm -F -a m -S 192.168.1.0/24 -D 0.0.0./0
To allow ftp, audio, video, chat through the firewall you have to
install the modules ip_masq_ftp.o, ip_masq_raudio.o, etc. that are in
/lib/modules/2.0.34-0.6/ipv4 (insmod ....).
checks:ifconfig
ping from the gateway to the Internet and from
the workstation to the gateway and the Internet
check routing table (netstat -rn or route -n)
to watch what is going on use tail -f /var/log/messages

Please also cc me at: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Hello,
First, I must say... I'm a newbie. That said, now hopefully you won't
flame me too much. Okay, here is the question:
After building a new kernel last night (i.e., 2.2.6) on my RedHat 5.2
Pentium Pro 180MHz box, did a "route -n" and got the following results:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use
Iface
sdn-ar-002casfr * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0
ppp0
192.168.1.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0
eth0
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
default sdn-ar-002casfr 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0
ppp0
Why 2 eth0 lines? I have updated all suggested apps as per RedHats site
(i.e., both the standard updated 5.2 apps as well as the special ones
for the 2.2.x kernel update).
HELP!!! I'm going nuts here trying to figure this out...
Being a newbie at this stuff really sucks sometimes...
But, of course, it's still a lot of fun ;-)
P.S. If I regress back to kernel 2.0.36-3 all is fine. The "bug?" only
seems to occur with kernel 2.2.6. Moreover, so far even though I've got
the double listed eth0 lines all is well (i.e., networking to local
network as well as through my ppp connection works like a charm).

I had the same. When if-up is run, ifconfig adds a route. The next couple
of lines on from ifconfig add a route. Therefore two routes. I took out the
extra lines and only one route was created. When I rebooted, I found that
there was no route for localhost! It didn't appear to prevent routeing to
localhost. I haven't bothered to change it back yet. I also haven't been
bothered to check if there is an ifconfig option to not add a route. It's
not really a problem even if it does look silly.

Wow, just the answer I was looking for! I was using linuxconf to do all
this for me, but it messed things up for us and caused the server to
crash, which included many clients web pages!
I have some questions down below, that I would appreciate if anyone could
kindly answer..I am a beginner in all this....
//> Can someone please tell me how to setup virtual domains on sendmail ?
//
//1- Add to your .mc file:
// FEATURE(virtusertable)
// FEATURE(use_cw_file)
//2- Rebuild the sendmail.cf file with m4.
// If you don't know .mc files:
//http://personal1.iddeo.es/ret005lc/diald-win-e.html#sendmail and look
//for the cf/README file of sendmail.
//
//3- Put the domain names into /etc/sendmail.cw , for instance:
// fcc.net
// rtfm.net
// and add MX records for these domains to your DNS server.
How are MX records added? Which files are edited on the main server? Isn't
/etc/hosts enough?
//4- Create a /etc/virtusertable file containing:
// [EMAIL PROTECTED] nathan1
// [EMAIL PROTECTED] nathan2
This is where I am confused...If I wanted fcc.net clients to get email
just at fcc.net, would it be necessary to write a virtusertable?
For example, if I wanted:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
(also, about 100 + users)....
should I still create the virtusertable?
So if I send mail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and nathan checked his POP account (say, with netscape), he
would get it with no problems, right?
Also, everytime I added a user, where would their mail directory be
located? Or do I have to create the user within my own server? I do not
understand how all this works....If each user could get a directory like:
/virtual_mail/company.com/home/user and so on....this would be much
better...
I run sendmail 8.8.7 with redhat linux 5.2 - kernel 2.2.6 ...

Subject: Two network cards
Date: Fri, 23 Apr 1999 09:41:50 -0400
I successfully (is this the right spelling??) installed two network
cards in my Redhat 5.2 Linux system. Everything works fine, if the two
network cards ar on a different subnet. Now here is my question:
If I want to put both of the network cards on the same network, in order
to increase the server's throughput toward the network, what do I need
to do?
I tried tho give them different static IP addresses on the same subnet,
but only one of them was able to work. I realized why, Just I do not
know how to make them work. So the reason why this is happening resides
in the routing. In the above configuration (if the subnet is
200.200.200.0 and the ip's are 200.200.200.1 and 2 with the same netmask
255.255.255.0) the routin table shows the following:
200.200.200.0 * 255.255.255.0 U eth1
200.200.200.0 * 255.255.255.0 U eth0
127.0.0.0 * 255.255.255.255 lp
in this case the eth0 will never work. If I change the order of routing
by adding a line:
route add -net 200.200.200.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 eth0
then the order will change and the eth0 will work, but the eth1 no. So
what is the solution to get both of them work?
Thanks, Zoltan Pittner
