I have two computers, one is running win95 and the other slackware linux
2.0.33. I have read the IP-Masquerade mini howto MANY MANY times and VERY
thoroughly. I still can't get it to work :(
My goal is to have the win95 machine access the internet via the linuxbox's
dial up internet connection via an ethernet cable connecting the two. So far
the only thing the win95 and linux comps can do is ping each other (OH BOY!!!)
ftp, telnet, www, etc... via the ethernet cable, but that is of no real value
to me.
I'm sorry I can't just give a specific problem that I'm having so I could just
get some help so instead I'll try and give you all the information I can give
you.
Windows 95 computer:
IP address: 192.168.2.2
Gateway: 192.168.2.1
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
DNS host: 205.252.116.10 (my isp's nameserver)
Please not that my ISP is ____ NOT____ AOL. I just use it for e-mail, honest.
Everything else in network setup left untouched. That information was setup
in the tcp/ip protocol for my ethernet card.
Linux computer:
IP address: 192.168.2.1
DNS host: 205.252.116.10
/etc/rc.d/rc.inet1
(I removed a little at the top)
Edit for your setup.
IPADDR="192.168.2.1"
NETMASK="255.255.255.0"
NETWORK="192.168.2.0"
BROADCAST="192.168.2.255"
GATEWAY=""
Uncomment the lines below to initialize the ethernet device.
(well I did that, not going to type it up)
/etc/rc.d/rc.firewall
#Flush all commands
ipfwadm -F -f
ipfwadm -I -f
ipfwadm -O -f
#other stuff (I know you love my technicality)
ipfwadm -F -p deny
# now NOTHING can get through...let's change that...
ipfwadm -F -a m -S 192.168.1.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0
# if I wanted to do it by individual computer...
# ipfwadm -F -a m -S 192.168.1.2/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0
(and then I have some stuff from the firewall/proxy server howto which
apparently forwards e-mail to my server and stuff like that....I've tried with
it commented out and normally, with it[masqueradeing] not working either way)
before connencting to ISP

Well, that's about all I can think of that would be useful for someone trying
to diaganose my problem. If you need more info, I'll be glad to give it to
you. I can't reach servers from the win95 machine either by numbers or names.
Thanks in advance,
Kevin
