why do it all yourself? download ipCop and have a firewall, gateway, 
proxyserver, cache (even windows update cache, with some additional plugins)

you cant beat specialised distros.

Greetings all.


Am stuck and need some help. Trying to set up a gateway on a small network. I 
have installed Ubuntu on my box and shorewall as the firewall.
All configuration settings seem ok as per the documentation.
Given the external interface IP provided by my ISP.... When i connect IDU unit 
to this interface, am able to surf off the machine. When I connect 2nd 
interface to the switch, am not able to surf on this very machine. With this 
setup, I can also ping the gateway from other machines on the network but NOT 
able to surf.


Any pointers on what i should look out for?


Regards,
P.
