Hi Guys
this is my first time writing to the list and the problem is not really a masq
problem, sorry but i don't know anybody else to ask:
i use a linux system with suse 7.0 and kernel 2.2.16 to route an internal
network into the internet.
anything worked fine for several months.
there's been a 3C509-NIC (eth1) connected to the internal lan and a RTL
8139-NIC (eth0) to a dsl-modem.
masquerading etc.worked fine.
now came along another internal network which needs to be connected. so i
added a third nic into that pc (D-Link DE528 (i think ne2k-pci compatible)
i configured the nic (eth2) with yast and it worked. the new network was
visible.
after a while i decided to recompile the kernel, because of several reasons
and i implemented the ne2k-pci into the kernel monolithic (NOT as module) as i
did already a long time ago with the previous two. so from then on all three
where in the kernel and after reboot desaster began.
the autoprobing decided to let the D-Link use eth0, then former eth0 became
eth1 and the 3com-card failed because it couldn't handle the ne2k-pci-driver
(???strange, huh)
all i could archieve was getting all three running with an append line for the
kernel for the 3com card to advice it to use the 3c509 -driver
(ether=7,0x330,3,0x3c509,eth2)
but i don't want this, my routing does not work with this.
question:
how do i have to configure the NIC's to have them in this order:
eth0: RTL8139
eth1: 3c509
eth2: ne2k-pci (D-Link DE528)
thanks in advance
ps: i am a linux beginner, please make it simple ;-))
