Routing Network Traffic With Mandrake
I am running Mandrake 8.0 (KDE ver 2.1.1) on a machine with 2 NICs. This is a college project. I am attempting to configure this machine as a firewall, and to pass packets from one network to another. Eth0 is on my external network. Eth1 is on my internal network. I set the gateway in "netconf" to our school's router. My Eth0 is configured for the school's network (DHCP) and I can surf the internet with no problem.
Workstations on the internal network can ping both cards on my Mandrake machine, but CAN NOT go past ETH0!! I have downloaded several tutorials on ipchains and ip masquerading but none seem to be helping.
Please help!!

I added a route entry with the route command. When I restart the network, this entry is gone. Therefore I wanted to edit the routing table by hand, but I didn't found a file to edit. Where is it?
I'm using Mandrake 8.1.

nodename
nodename(4) File Formats nodename(4)
NAME
nodename - local source for system name
SYNOPSIS
/etc/nodename
DESCRIPTION
When a machine is standalone or its IP address is configured locally, the /etc/nodename file contains the system name. By convention, the
system name is the same as the hostname associated with the IP address of the primary network interface, for example, hostname.hme0.
If the machine's network configuration is delivered by the RPC bootparams protocol, the /etc/nodename file is not used, as the system name
is delivered by the remote service.
Given a system name value, regardless of source, the uname utility invoked with the -S option is used to set the system name of the running
system.
If the machine's network configuration is delivered by the DHCP protocol, the /etc/nodename file is used only if the DHCP server does not
provide a value for the Hostname option (DHCP standard option code 12).
A system name configured in /etc/nodename should be unique within the system's name service domain in order to ensure that any network ser-
vices provided by the system will operate correctly.
Given a system name value, regardless of source, the uname utility invoked with the -S option is used to set the system name of the running
system.
EXAMPLES
Example 1 Syntax
The syntax for nodename consists of a single line containing the system's name. For example, for a system named myhost:
myhost
