The WEIRD thing is, the main lin box will ping and telnet and ftp
to the little box and vice versa, but you guessed it, the main server
can get to the internet, but the little box cannot.
You see, the main box's second ethernet card (eth1) is
addressed 100.100.100.100 on the internal network
and the little box's card (eth0) is on 100.100.100.101
the main box's first nic (eth0) is addressed 64.217.130.89
which is also the address that hits the internet, while the
terminal node interface is the default gateway of 64.217.130.94
(you can ping it from the main box) and the main box's eth0 has a netmask
of 255.255.255.248. WHEW!!!
-> Theres something I think I'm missing here (correct me if I am wrong)
-> from my experience netmasks *to* the internet are usually 255.255.255.0
-> leaving a broadcast as <IP> - last octet + 255
-> example line for this (using your IP) would be something like
-> ifconfig eth0 64.217.130.94 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast
64.217.130.255 up
I don't know if I have the right netmask on the little box or
not, it does not grumble one way or the other.
-> The netmask for the little box if its only on the local network
-> (meaning it doesn't have its own real world IP to the net) would be
something like:
-> 255.255.0.0 however your gateway seems like an actual gateway machine
you are hosting
-> locally.
-> if you are trying to *share* one outside IP for the machines check out
the HOWTO for
-> IP masqerading. It explains what you have to do to set this type of
sharing up.
