hi there.. I hope You have done the basic things required for Natting.. Just the gateway u have metioned on your server... -A POSTROUTING -o ppp0 -j MASQUERADE (note ppp0/eth0 depends on tyhe connection type you have) -A FORWARD -s 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 -j ACCEPT -A FORWARD -d 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 -j ACCEPT -A FORWARD -s ! 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 -j DROP for ur windows problem just check wht gateway address to have mentioned there ... and also mention the same DNS in it ..the one u mentioned on your server..
its should work... If it doesnt just refer to RedHat 9.0 Bible... Chapter Connecting to Internet... it will guide you..prefectly... Enjoy Networking. milo On Fri, 2003-12-26 at 20:53, joel_divekar wrote: > Hi All > > I an trying to share internet access using NAT.
