Can someone help me?
Im using Redhat 5.0. We have two small lans. NOT, and NEVER will be
connected to the Internet. So dont mind the spoof IP numbers!
I finally figured out why I could not see beyond the ppp server. I did not
enable IPv4FOWARD in /etc/default/sysconfig.
I also set /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward to "1"
Now I can see every machine on both sides of the lan. but something strange
is happening. first, I cannot resolve any names, I can only use ip numbers.
Second, when I ran a "traceroute" from the ppp server,
I got a wierd error.. (I included it)
could someone PLEASE just check out my setups, make sure I did not miss
something obvious!
THANKS ALOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
