Re: trying to make a gateway.

[Chris Hoeschen]

Well just to have a gateway all you need to do is masquerade, that is change the source address to that of your internet connection.  This is done by:   iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -s 192.168.1.1/24 -j SNAT --to-source 148.245.89.1   This is assuming you have a static IP address as your external.  If your external IP address is assigned via DHCP you will need to change the -j SNAT to -j MASQUERADE     ----- Original Message ----- From: Carlos Horacio Silva Elizondo To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 03, 2002 3:40 PM Subject: trying to make a gateway.
