Hi everyone Sorry this isn't the right place to ask this... but I've spent the whole day reading articles about how to setup networks and routing tables and such like and still failing miserably. I'm hoping there's something I'm missing that is a beginner's error!
I'm trying to do something that is probably really simple. I have a server which has two interfaces. eth0 obtains an IP (192.168.1.20) by DHCP for the internet from a router sitting on 192.168.1.1. The server, as such, is able to get onto the internet. eth1 connects into a hub, via which all other workstations will connect. eth1 has a static IP, 192.168.2.1. So far I've got the workstations obtaining correct IP addresses (pool starting 192.168.2.100), so I assume the DHCP server is working properly, but no more than that. Can't even ping the server at 192.168.2.1 - “Reply from 192.168.2.1: Destination host unreachable”. My hunch is that it's something to do with the routing tables, or maybe the DHCP on eth0, but I can't find a proper answer anywhere on Google. I was hoping to find some sort of sample config, as surely this is not an uncommon situation, but maybe I'm not searching for the right terms. For reference, I'm using Karoshi 7, which is based on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS 64-bit. I'm hoping someone here can help. I'm a bit of a newbie to Ubuntu networking. If you want, I would be happy to make a donation to a LUG or some other FOSS project in return for your assistance. Apologies again for being in the wrong place but I've been a lurker for over a year and didn't know who else to turn to.
