I currently have a Lynksys Router setup to handle the DHCP on a 192.168.4.0/255.255.255.0 network. The computers are setup with 192.168.4.1 (the address of the router) as the gateway. I tried setting up DHCP on Mandrake and disabled on the router. The Mandrake box could access the internet, but the remaining Windows boxes could not. The gateway on the Windows boxes was set to 192.168.4.111 which is the static IP of the Mandrake box. I tries setting up the Mandrake box as a proxy (I've been using drakwizard to set these up) using squid, but the the Windows box still could not access the internet. I did change the proxy settings on the Windows box to use ip 192.168.4.111 and the port suggested by drakwizard. What is it that I need to do? My goal is to have everything routed through the Mandrake box under one firewall. Eventually I would like to expose the server to the outside world (using dynamic dhcp) so that I can do some remote access when I travel (ftp mainly). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
