Special Forums IP Networking Routing Network Traffic With Mandrake Post 8982 by Andy Hibbins on Saturday 20th of October 2001 08:11:59 AM

Hi,

Have you checked that ip forwarding is enabled? This can be checked by running the following command:

cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

If the result is 0 then you need to run:
echo 1 >> /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward


You'll also need to check that ip masquerading is enabled via your ipchains/iptables firewall.

The following is a basic rule to enable ip masq, where 192.168.1.0/24 is the range of ip addresses on your lan.

ipchains -A forward -i eth1 -s 192.168.1.0/24 -j MASQ

You might find the following tutorials useful for configuring the rest of you firewall rules:

Hope this helps
