The server has a firewall because, yes, it also provides access to the
internet. At the moment I don't want to go down the route of setting up
two separate machines because I am just trying out this net booting to see
if I can make use of a couple of old 486s I have doing nothing. The other
machines on the local network all run MS Windows, so they are suitable as
neither a LTSP server nor (in my opinion) an internet server.
Anyway, I have a few ideas to work on (thanks, Ken and Johann). Maybe
they will solve it, maybe not, but I am sure that I should be able to have
different spoofing policies for eth0 and ippp0, or equivalently 10.0.0.x
and everything else.
Thanks,
Joe
