Hello All,
You will have to excuse my language regarding Linux but it is my 1st
attempt at a *nix OS.
Product:
Redhat 6.2 (Zoot) - Kernel: 2.2.14-5.0
Issue:
I have setup a dial-in Server to allow windows 9x,NT machines to dial
in and get access to the Apache server based on the dial-in server and
I also want to allow access to a few hosts on the local lan. When a Win
machine dials into the server it can ping and view the HTML page on the
server it is dialed into. When I try and ping from the Win machine to
other IP addresses on the lan they time out. I am using the IP
addresses too not machine names. NB: When I ping from the local console
of the server to the same IP address it all works fine.
It appears that the pppd is not forwarding/allowing packets to be
forwarded to the eth0 device.
I setup the dial-in server using the following document located at;
http://www.swcp.com/~jgentry/pers.html
I am using the AutoPPP option located
in /etc/mgetty+sendfax/login.config
It calls pppd using the config file /etc/ppp/options.server
/etc/ppp/options.server file contents
-detach
asyncmap 0
modem
crtscts
lock
require-pap
refuse-chap
login
allow-ip 192.168.0.1
proxyarp
ms-dns 192.168.0.1
I am using PAP to auth from the /etc/passwd file.
I am also utilising /etc/ppp/options.ttyS1 (the inbound serial line
specific config file)
/etc/ppp/options.ttyS1 file contents
192.168.0.222:192.168.0.223
allow-ip 192.168.0.1
The route table looks like this when the Win machine is connected to
the server.

Other information:
All machines are on the same subnet (255.255.255.0)
The server IP address is; 192.168.0.200
I also have packet forwarding turned on and the Gateway host is set to
192.168.0.254
Can anyone shed some light on this issue for me????
Thanking you all in advance,
Mark Bayles
