I read the firewall howto (which is how i got
internet sharing working), but I wasn't really
looking into different distributions. Here's
the deal:
I have a RH6.1 machine (Orion) that is hooked
up to my school's network. I have a win98
machine (Chamelion) hooked up to Orion. I
have internet sharing working, but I want to
be able to see the school's network in my win98
network neighborhood through Orion. My school
is on a 10.x.x.x network with it's own DHCP with
netmask 255.255.255.0 and my network is on a
192.168.2.x network with netmask 255.255.255.0
I've edited the /etc/lmhosts file like this:
192.168.2.1 linuxserver.school.edu
10.1.4.201 linuxserver.school.edu
192.168.2.10 linuxserverclient.school.edu
Here's what I currently have in my
/etc/smb.conf file:
wins support = yes
;wins server = 168.28.176.11
wins proxy = yes
dns proxy = no
Here's what I have in my network properties on
my win98 client:
DNS Configuration- Enable DNS
Host: linuxserverclient Domain: school.edu
DNS Server Search Order
(all the addresses found in /etc/resolv.conf on linuxserver)
168.28.176.11
168.28.176.253
168.28.176.254
Gateway-
Installed gateways: 192.168.2.1 (address of linuxserver)
WINS Configuration (Enable WINS Resolution)
WINS Server Search Order:
168.28.176.253
168.28.176.254
192.168.2.1
IP Address- Specify an IP address
(I have dhcpd running on linuxserver)
I've also added my server in my client's \windows\hosts.sam,
renamed it to hosts, but no go. Thanks for all of your help so
far, I just wanna get this going so I can access the other computers
