I found a solution to my problem, I had two nics, DHCP, and could not see the
net from windows, linux could tho. (after recompiling of the kernel turned out
useless).
Ok, the whole solution thing is on a shaky ground(reminds me of NT). This is how
it was and how I fixed, it??....
During the bootup, linux was detecting only 1 network card, once bootup, I had
to configure the second one (assign it a fake ip) <-- this was a small detail,
but important.
Second, the routed demon had trouble starting up. I was working on this for the
past 2 days, and last night I thought I give it one more try before I scrap
linux and install NT. Anyway I run netconf to configure the two nics, and
enabled routing.
After that in the rc.local file I have to rerun "pump" for some reason,
otherwise it will not connect me to the net (Keep in mind I'm on a cable
modem(DHCP), you probably have a static IP, so you might want to ignore anything
to pump).
One unresolved issue !.
Once pump is run second time, the IP address of the eth0 (connected to the cable
modem), is different then what it appears, what I mean, is that; for instance -
eth0 is assigned ip 24.24.24.24, but in reality if I telnet somewhere and check
the IP where I came from it shows as 24.24.24.100, I think it has something to
do with pump.
Wow, I have been away from linux for several years, and now it's behaving more
like NT! I just hope that's not the case, I hope it is my lack of knowledge.
