Mention subnet mask for clarity. From your numbering scheme, it appears to be /16 but that is a guess 2. Mention clearly which node is the gateway to avoid ambiguity. Again, from the diagram it seems to be 10.1.0.1. > > I think the NAT table is not there and all attempts to create it fail. VL does *not* figure out that you intend to do 'Nat on the 10.1.0.1 node. And what attempts have you made to create it but fail? > What tweaks do I need to do to iptables to enable this feature and be able > to access the outside? You will have to script the firewall rules (iptables) and ensure that they are inserted in the kernel at every boot e.g. in /etc/rc.local There are several great sites that will help with creating the iptables rules. Please search with key words "linux+iptables+nat" HTH, -- Arun Khan _______________________________________________ Voyage-linux mailing list Voyage-linux@list.voyage.hk http://list.voyage.hk/mailman/listinfo/voyage-linux
