hi,
I have quite a stupid question.... i set a suse 7.0 box as a gateway between a token ring network and a born-and-growing ethernet network.... it's > inside our lan and we're working with private adresses. One of the subnetwork is 192.168.0.x (the token ring) and the ethernet subnetwork is 192.168.100.x... The gateway hosts 2 nics, one token ring and one ethernet. So far the gateway runs quit good, > but not good enough because i have internet adresses that are visible from a box before my gateway, and not after my gateway....
I used ipchains in order to say "everything that comes and goes can cross", but actually, it does not.... what have I missed ?
ip_forward is enabled i added the token ring adress as gateway to the ethernet nic and the ipchains is -A forward -s 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 -d 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 -j MASQ
as it is inside our network, I don't want any filter to be active... i just want everything to pass through the gateway back and forth.
I certainly have missed something important but what ?...
TIA Stephane

There is some other possibility you can try. We also have a router for
tokenring and ethernet.
if you dont want to add the route to your ethernet/tokenring (don't know
where your internetrouter is connected to) you can have to enable
ip-forwarding and add the following line to the ip-chains rules:
ipchains -A forward -i <interface where you want to route> -s
