Hi all you Linux Guru's,
Sorry to bother you guys.
I hope that you all had a great day yesterday.
I am running Red Hat Linux 7 and connecting with an analogue modem on Com 2-
I am also using a dynamic IP address from my ISP.
In Linux I made the rc.firewall and saved it in the /etc/rc.d folder
The rc.firewall contained the following lines :
ipchains -P forward DENY
ipchains -A forward -i ppp0 -j MASQ
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
I made the name servers on my Linux Box the DNS severs IP addresses of my
ISP.
On the Windows box I tried to make the default gateway the Windows Pc and
the DNS server of my ISP. But that did not help me at all.
When trying to view on Internet Explorer I get the following error
Snip
Forbidden
You do not have permission to access http://www.msn.com on this server
Apache /1.3.1.2 Server at leei.ours.com port 80
snip
When trying to ping an IP address I get request timed out.
What do I need to do to get my Internet Connection Shared ??
Do I need to get the rc.firewall file to load and to make it executeable, if
so how do I do it ?
All advice and help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Lee
