Does `aptitude -v` give relevant additional output? When in the
"Preconfiguring"-stage, does `ps aux` show something unusual?

Maybe some iptables rule?
iptables -L gives ACCEPT for all ( input, output, forward)
I always setup gateways with shorewall. First
you need to activate forwarding in /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf
I haven't this file ?
and
then change /etc/shorewall/masq to suit your config.

Hi,
I tried to use one machine with two card, as gateway, I activate the
ip_forward, ( echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward ), but it
didn't work.
no replying packet when I ping from a machine to another via my GW,
Something else is needed ??
thanks for help

Because it's a Windows executable(0), and simply starts a net-install.
(0) It has to be, since there's no other OS on the machine yet.
