Here again, I don't understand very well, so let's simplify it.

Ok, i'll guess here you have a cable connection to mediaone 'so in the Internet access section you have cable, Lan connection. On the firewall (your choice to go there, through the ssh applet or through a terminal), type route -n Do the same thing on the client side and send the output in both cases. A simple question: Why setting up an internal dhcp server on the eth0 interface of the firewall, if you are using a static IP address for your test machine ? the dhcp server sets the dns entries in /etc/resolv.conf of the clients and sets the default route also for the client. That means you had to add the default route by hand on the client side. > This install is from a burned copy of SNF, that I made last night after > receiving the good news that it was available from a fellow Mandrake user. > > The only routes I need to set is from the internet to my local lan on the > 255.255.255.0 subnet on the 192.168.1.x network here i don't understand again the route oe is setting is to go outside your network, never the other way around from the internet to your inside lan. so, one firewall 192.168.1.1 (default route set up by mediaone on eth1) and 192.168.1.10 (default route is your gateway: 192.168.1.1 on eth0, the inly nic card on this computer) sincerely, -- Florin http://www.mandrakesoft.com
Re: [Cooker-firewall] Cannot install the software at all on former mandrake7.2 gateway computer
Hello, The lan and firewall should be connected, I was able to drop in the old firewall box running dual boot 7.2/8.0 and had no problems immedietly connecting from the lan to the internet. The Ip's on the lan are as follows: 192.168.1.0/192.168.1.255 range netmask 255.255.255.0 Test PC is at 192.168.1.12 (Hardcoded) with netmask 255.255.255.0, and gateway at 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.10 alternately to test. The system is triple booting Windows 2000/Mandrake8.0/Redhat7.1 with no problems with the other router/firewall running iptables, snort, etc. I have also tried the suggested dhcp incoming and DHCP to lan config where on Eth1 I receive the internet from mediaone, and on Eth0 The lan computers receive DHCP. This install is from a burned copy of SNF, that I made last night after receiving the good news that it was available from a fellow Mandrake user. The only routes I need to set is from the internet to my local lan on the 255.255.255.0 subnet on the 192.168.1.x network The really frustrating part was that the last message I got from the install was that everything was successful, and to an ip that I cannot even see. FYI, I did triple check the cables during my multiple re-installs to make sure that it was not a hardware issue. I look forward to any feedback, and hope to get this running this evening.

What Ips do you have on your lan, any details are welcomed ... Also, what kind of install are we talking about ? Network install, cdrom one ? Also, what are the routes on your firewall, and what clients do you use? > I have tried every network setting I can think of, and have performed 6 re-= > installs from scratch with Nics changing, and using route and netstat to ve= > rify my connections with no avail.
