Hi friends,
# Here is an institute with leased line connection to internet and a
small pool of ip adresses.
# One professor has a room in the institute, with one UTP cable to plug
into the NIC card of one computer and has been given 2 permanent IP
addresses.
# He has brought four computers(all with ONE NIC, two with Linux and two
with windows) and a 8-port HUB for networking all the machines.
# The 2 permanent IPs have been given to the two Linux machine and use
the two windows m/c have been configured with private IP addresses
(192.168.0.2 & 192.168.0.3)
# The main UTP cable coming from the computer centre has been plugged
into the HUB and so have been cables from each PC.
# The two Linux boxes with permanent IP have the gateway address as the
IP of the main router of of the institute and are thus connected to the
network.
# The problem is now connecting the two windows machines with local IPs
to the internet.
# Will it be possible to go ahead with IP masquerading without
installing a second NIC (by doing network aliasing on one NIC) on the
Gateway Linux machine and without adding another HUB?
