Re: Help in gatewaying - more info about network

["Amit Goel" <linuxer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

hello

thanx for your interest

i am having following configuration

network 192.168.1.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
netmask 255.255.255.0
host : la.wonder.com
ip : 192.168.1.1


default gateway for clients : 192.168.1.1
default gateway for server : none, ppp0 as soon as it is up


my network is working since i am able to exchange mail within the domain as
well as from outside. This mail is also being sent thru the same linux
server only.

The only catch is clients are getting timed out response when trying to use
linux server as gateway.

Also none of the 'gated' and 'routed' daemon is running, do I have to run
one of them to get it working for me ?

I have set IP_FORWARD = yes in network configuration.

I have not yet used any of the firewalling commands like ipchains or
ipfwadm.

****************  When modem is connected to net i get following routing
table on server
