Afternoon Everyone:
When I had Red Hat 6.1 installed on my machine, I had the following 4
lines at the end of my rc.local file:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
/sbin/ipchains -F forward
/sbin/ipchains -P forward DENY
/sbin/ipchains -A forward -i eth0 -s 192.168.1.2 -j MASQ
This allowed me to have my internal Windows machine make use of my cable
modem Internet connection. I just did a clean install on Red Hat 6.2, and
attempted to do exactly the same steps. This runs, and if I do an
ipchains -L forward, it shows the rule in place. However, it doesn't
appear to be working. Further, I noticed that I can't ping the
internal interface of the Windows machine from the Linux box, and vice
versa. Both cards work just fine if I ping them from their own
machines, and the connection works if I reinstall Red Hat 6.1. Anyone
think of a reason why it's not working or something I might be missing?
- Mike
