Hi I'm trying to set up IP masquerading. I had it set up under a previous install, but I can't get it going now. The problem seems to be related to the fact that I can't ping the other computer on the LAN, the one that's going to be behind this one. Everytime I try to ping, this is the output I get: $ ping hal10000 PING hal10000 (172.17.0.2): 56 data bytes ping: sendto: Operation not permitted ping: wrote hal10000 64 chars, ret=-1 ping: sendto: Operation not permitted ping: wrote hal10000 64 chars, ret=-1 ping: sendto: Operation not permitted ping: wrote hal10000 64 chars, ret=-1
What could the problem be? My ethernet card is an SiS 900 onboard chip and its address is 172.17.0.1. The driver is built into the kernel-- that's the only difference between this setup and the previous setup, the driver *was* compiled as a module last time. Could that be messing everything up?
