Hi thanks for responding
i set router forwarding
the router is 192.168.9.1
5900/tcp 192.168.9.2 > this is the address of linux nic 1
linux nic 2 = 192.168.29.230
then below, i set
FW_FORWARD_TCP="0.0.0.0/0,192.168.29.50,0" # Beware to use
this!
because i was told that 0.0.0.0/0 = any incoming address
192.168 etc add of win98 box to connect to
0=display number for vnc
I then tried
FW_FORWARD_TCP="219.nnn.nnn.nnn/24,192.168.29.50,0" # Beware
to use this!
where 212.nnn.nnn.nnn/24 is the address of the router as supplied by my IP.
& I think the /24 relates to 255.255.255.0
Where am I going wrong please?
also are ther other settings in the firewall which need to be set to yes???
thanks again
terry
