DHCP client & ipchains headache
Hi all,
I upgraded my SUSE 6.1 to SUSE 7.1 and at once the following things won't work anymore:
1) My DHCP client is not able anymore to retrieve my IP address from the @home server. It times out all the time. If I use a fixed IP I can get on the net, so there is no physical problem.
2) I use this computer as access to the internet via ipchains. I copied the old script i used, and it seems to work fine except when I try to play an online game. With the old linux version I could play this game. Where should I look to find the cause of the problem?
The thing is that it could be a setting or so, but this is the first time I try to install linux myself, and I am really a complete linux dummy. I hope someone can help me.
