In /etc/sysctl.conf: net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1
Or echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward Also check that you are not blocking the packets with ipchains/iptables -----Original Message----- From: rahul b jain cs student [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 09 September 2002 14:32 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: How to configure a Linux machine as a Router Hi, I have a Linux server which I want to configure as a Router. On one end it is connected to a workstation and on the other to a server both of which are Linux machines. So the network looks like this Workstation -------- Router -------- Server 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.14 192.168.1.14 I am using a direct connection (using cross over cable) for all the machines. At the Router eth2 is used to talk to 192.168.0 network and eth3 is used to talk to 192.168.1 network. I am able to ping from the workstation to the router, from the router to the server. However my ping from the workstation to the server fails. I have ip forwarding on at the Router. Can anyone tell me what I have missed so that I can make the linux machine work as a router.
