Juan, Eth0 has the external assigned IP by my ISP. Eth1 has a 192.168.x.x ip address. Eth1 acts as the DHCP server for my LAN. My LAN is working fine. I can connect machines to the LAN and even connect one machine to another.
But I cannot get eth1 to talk to eth0. I cannot connect the LAN to the internet nor connect to any internal machine from outside!! Do I need to bridge the 2 NICs ???

You say that you have two cards, in the same machine, are them in the same subnet ? why don't you put one, wich connects to "outside" in one, and the other in another subnet?. I have working a firewall/router with iptables, and the card is connected to de adsl-modem has 192.168.1.10, and the card to brins internet to the lan has 192.168.0.1. If you cannot ping from a machine in one subnet, to another in other subnet, maybe you need to load the kernel-module wich does that job. -- Facundo Suárez Neuquén - Argentina FDSoft mail y jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chadha, Devesh" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, January 21, 2004 11:25 AM Subject: 2 NIC cards not talking | Hi, | | I have a linux box with 2 NIC cards, both are properly configured. | Both are | on the same subnet, but still don't ping to one another!! | | I need to setup the box as the firewall/router that has eth0 set as external | and eth1 as internal serving as DHCP server to other computers on the | network.
