|Hello,
|
|I think that I might be a little ambigious. Basically I have 3 windows
|masqed PCs, on a 192.168.x.x network.

| There is a RH linux FW with 2 interfaces, one on the 192.168.x.x network
|and one on the internet with the IP 216.103.x.x.

|From my 192.168.x.x network, I can ping 216.103.x.x, i.e the RH linux host.

|I can also telnet to 216.103.x.x from the 192.168.x.x
|network. On the 192.168.x.x, there is a web/ftp server which I have used
|ipchains to allow the internet to connect to. i.e. people from the
|internet
|can ftp 216.103.x.x or http://216.103.x.x and access this
|internally masqed
|win2000 ftp/http server. But from the 192.168.x.x. network, I
|cannot access
|ftp 216.103.x.x or http://216.103.x.x. But if I use its internal
|IP address
|from the 192.168.x.x network, I can access it locally. What should be done
|to allow my 192.168.x.x hosts to access ftp 216.103.x.x or
|http://216.103.x.x?
|

Eh, because the 216.103.x.x interface is not "on" your lan, your computers
don't know how to get to it. They then send the request to the Masq box
(Btw: who cares about reserved IP's, you can list them in your messages...)
at 192.168.0.1 which sends it "out" onto the internet via the interface that
the 216.103.x.x ethernet card is CONNECTED TO. Get it?

Your local ethernet address is bypassed... As far as your Masq machines are
concerned the gateway to the server machines is at the ISP.

You might want to play with setting up a route to your own IP address for
this...
