Kevin, I still have the problem of doing DHCP from the second NIC (eth1) since DHCP only works on the wire of the NIC that is requesting it, ie if my laptop requests it, it hits eth1, and doesnt propgate through to if0 to Verizon. One solution is to connect the laptop and eth1 to the DSL line directly, do DHCP, but this is not a clean way.
Sure, if I do find a solution, Ill be happy to send information to you and whoever is interested. --- Kevin Holmquist <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Nit, > > Once you get this built, would you post the ifconfig > settings, > IPChains/IPTables rulesets, route tables, etc? > > Thanks! > > Kevin > > nit etc wrote: > > > <snip> > > > Example: > > > > > > if0 encounters a packet for 192.168.1.3.
