Hi,

Could you drop us the following configs (you can censor your IPs )

Router
- sh run,
- sh int e0 (or sh int fa0)
- debug interface e0 (or debug int fa0)

Firewall
- ifconfig
- iptables -nv --list

This should tell us a better story.

> Last Friday (I am typing this mail at the end of Wednesday) I made a

> Xeon Processor 2.4 GHZ, 1 GB RAM, 2 x 40GB HDD. Since among its other
> intended functions, it also going to be our proxy, I added a 2nd n/w
> card on top of its onboard gigabit ethernet card and then embarked on

> It detected my network cards O.K and using YAST, I I.P addressed them

> onboard to face our internal network and the other card to face the
> internet. The onboard returned the ping from all the internal machines
> O.K, but the second card gave me a network unreachable error. Re-check
> the values, re-enter them all O.K but still network unreachable errors.
> As a test, at this point, I decided to configure the onboard instead to

> When I switched the onboard to face the internal n/w again, BOTH cards
> returned network unreachable errors!!!!!! I got two other WORKING cards
> placed them into the machine, spent my saturday, my sunday, monday,
> tuesday, googled my (oops no nasty words!!) off and the circus
> continued, ping from inside, network unreachable errors from outside.
> In between, I configured BIND which returns a succesfull dig @localhost
> but no remote servers found error when I try to dig anything else. I
> think its because of the other problem. I installed and configured
> squid which is also dying with a DNS name lookup tests failed error. I
> still think it is the other problem. I have configured and reconfigured
> SuSEfirewall2 a million times but still no luck. I have disabled ipv6,
> set static routes, checked all files in /etc/sysconfig/network against
> recommended ones and so many other things but still no luck.
> Can someone out there save my sanity?? Honest!! This thing is driving
> me mad!!!!
