Hi I'm trying to set up masquerading for our lab at school. We have an existing network of wintendo machines with Samba running on my Potato machine (skippy). Just recently we got an internet hook up. We're behind a firewall and get an IP via DHCP.
I put another NIC in skippy and now I can see both networks, but it doesn't seem to forward packets to the outside. I can't figure it out, I set this up at home in literaly 5 minutes and it just worked. The only difference I can see is the IP we get, in the 198.162.x.x range. Maybe this is the problem? Anyway here's my firewall rules and routing table. Chain input (policy DENY): target prot opt source destination ports ACCEPT all ------ anywhere anywhere n/a ACCEPT all ------ 10.0.0.0/8 anywhere n/a ACCEPT all ------ anywhere 192.168.15.52 n/a DENY all ----l- 10.0.0.0/8 anywhere n/a Chain forward (policy DENY): target prot opt source destination ports MASQ all ------ 10.0.0.0/8 anywhere n/a Chain output (policy DENY): target prot opt source destination ports ACCEPT all ------ anywhere anywhere n/a ACCEPT all ------ anywhere 10.0.0.0/8 n/a ACCEPT all ------ 192.168.15.0/24 anywhere n/a DENY all ----l- anywhere 10.0.0.0/8 n/a Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.15.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 10.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth1 default rtr33.auhsd.k12 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 I'd really appreciate any help. I need to get this working so I can get back to studying. Please CC me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks Rick
