Hei
I have 1 linux box (RH7.0) and 1 win98 box..
The linuxbox is connected to the internet with an isdncard. My goal is to
connect the win98 to the internet through the linuxbox.
I have gone through the howto and done what it says,with no luck
FACTS:
* "Ping" from win98 finds the linuxbox and visa versa, but not out on the
internet.
* Ping from the linuxbox works out on the internet. Network-card and
cabling is OK.
* rc.firewall script is started via rc.local.
* The rc.firewall script copied as it was written in the howto.
* Linuxbox = 192.168.0.1. winbox=192.168.0.2
When I do a "netstat -rn" I get the following output (not connected til ISP):
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface
192.168.2.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
192.168.0.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
The first line I wonder about. I don't have a network with 192.168.2.0, but
192.168.0.0 as it says in the second line.
Can I be sure of that the rc.firewall script is really started? In the
bootup I can't see any other messages than "Loading the rc.firewall ruleset".
I would like to know where the error might be so I can start looking. I have
been pondering about this problem on and off the last 3 weeks. It would be a
relief to get it all working.
Thanks,
Roger
