Based on what you stated so far, I'm assuming that you have not configured
any form of NAT translation, correct?  If not, I suggest getting the
init.firewall script from ftp://duke.eburg.com/pub/linux/init.firewall.
This will help in setting your Red Hat box up to perform NAT translation.
Then you need to make sure that all systems internally are using your Red
Hat box as their default gateway and have a valid DNS entry.  Once this is
done, you should be ready to go.

Note: In case you are using MS boxes on your network, I have seen mention
that MS boxes send superfluous DNS requests that may cause your Red Hat box
to dial when there is no real request.

Subject: Problems with dial on demand

Hi :

I am trying to use redhat 6.2 as a dial on demand router for my network.
>From the machine itself, I access the internet and it dials whenever the
connection is needed however, from the hosts on my network I cannot access
the net (it doesn't even cause the router machine to dial)

Can someone please give some assistance.

Bill
