192.168.1.50
255.255.255.0
192.168.1.1
 
But if these were set wrong, then I should not be able to ping either nic on the Mandrake router, and I can ping both of them, just cannot ping the outside world, ie. the dns server, etc.  So I'm thinking is is something in the Mandrake box that is not allowing the internel network out.

W2K is the OS but should that make any diference since this should just be a router and not using the Mandrake box for anthing else.

I am trying to setup a router/firewall.
Installed the nic
set eth0 to the 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
set eth1 to the ISP static IP address and mask.
 
Connected the computers .
I can ping anything from the Mandrake 9.0 box.
I can ping both nics in the Mandrake box from the client
I can ping the mandrake box eth1 from an outside computer
but I cannot get outside the from the client in the network.
I cannot ping the ISP's gateway or anthing else outside the eth1 nic.
 
What have a done wrong?
  Thanks
