Hi, I've got a network of two MS Win computers sitting behind a Leaf Bering firewall running on a p133.
The Bering box shares my internet connection (previously Cable, currently serial modem, hopefully soon ADSL) to the other two computers. This it does flawlessly. My problem is that I'm too cheap to buy a hub to connect the eth1 of the Bering box to the other two computers, so I've installed an extra ethernet card in said firewall, and hooked up two crossover cables. I've uncommented both the PPP and Bridge sections of Network conf->Interfaces. I've configured Shorewall->IFaces to be #ZONE INTERFACE BROADCAST OPTIONS net ppp0 - loc br0 detect routestopped #LAST LINE -- ADD YOUR ENTRIES BEFORE THIS ONE -- DO NOT REMOVE and lastly I've configured Shorewall->masq to be #INTERFACE SUBNET ADDRESS ppp0 br0 #LAST LINE -- ADD YOUR ENTRIES ABOVE THIS LINE -- DO NOT REMOVE oh and I fixed the bug in etc/network/if-pre-up.d/bridge So basically both machines can see the firewall, the firewall can see both machines. both machines can see the internet, but neither machine can see the other. When I ping from one machine to the other I get Reply from 192.168.1.254: Destination port unreachable. So what gives? p.s. The bridge seems to have learned the macs ok # brctl showmacs br0 port no mac addr is local? ageing timer 2 00:02:e3:0a:c0:8a no 1.70 1 00:50:da:38:1e:b3 no 2.70 2 00:c0:df:e3:df:e7 yes 0.00 1 00:c0:df:e3:ec:9b yes 0.00 Antony Briggs ------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: ThinkGeek at http://www.ThinkGeek.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html
