Hi,

I have a problem with a Redhat firewall using the Monmothas firewall script. 
On my internal network I have several dual boot machines. When booted in to 
Redhat they connect through the gateway firewall server as if they have a 
direct connection to the internet. When they are booted in to Windows 98 they 
don't seem to connect at all i.e. applications like Limewire and mail clients 
just don't seem to resolve anything. Even though I can ping domain names from 
the command line and get a good responses. All the TCP/IP settings are right 
I'm sure otherwise I wouldn't get ping responses, especially by domain 
name...I'm totally baffled... Why would the Linux clients have no problems 
but the Windows clients be so useless. Is it the MTU settings? I fiddled with 
these. I set up a squid proxy on the Redhat server just for the windows 
machines so they could browse. I would be greatful for any suggestions.

Thanks
Phil Sheldon
