Hi All,
Hope anyone out there can help me on this, CLIENT 1 is communicating
with SERVER
via IPX protocol, which is easy because it's on a LAN, CLIENT 2 is on a
"remote area",
and wants to connect to SERVER.
The connection from one site 1 to site 2 uses IP, how can I route
packets from CLIENT 2
going thru IP ROUTER 2, to IP ROUTER 1, and lastly to IPX SERVER.
I was thinking of inserting Linux in between IPX CLIENT 2 and IP ROUTER
2, and between IP ROUTER 1
And IPX SERVER, that LINUX box will have two NIC's. one uses IPX and the
other one uses IP
Is it possible on LINUX to forward from one NIC to another using
different protocols?
Regards,
Nhadie
