[LI] leased line and linux

["s.goswami" <goswami@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

dear friends ,
                at last alas we got out 64 K leased line up and running
after 3 months of running around DOT , ISP ...., now Linux is gonna play
a vital role is our organization as a proxy server and a DNS server,now
my doubt is how can i map the traffic from my organization to the IP's
which my ISP has given ,
my subnet is different from that of ISP do i need to change the subnet
or there is a work around,
some of the suggestions i got from friends were to assign a private ip
to the router ie 192.169.0.1 then point in all the nodes this ip as the
gateway , i am unable to figure out who is going to take care of the
routing table do i have to do some modifcations on the router or the
linux box will forward the traffic to the world.

Linux box with two network cards acting as a router to do the job of
router as well as proxy server. This is ruled out since we have a
router,
then also i am free to experiment.


your valuable suggestions are most welcome

thanks and regards
s.goswami
