[SLE] Anyone masquarding with dynamic DSL?
hi everyone; I have dynamic(DHCP) Uswest DSL which issues private(10.0.0.2) IP. Is it possible to masquarde with this local IP address? Anyone who tried it? I have small home network with 675 external router connected to only one machine. thanks -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq

Yep, I do it here. I have a small internal network masq'd through my SuSE box. It's connected to an Alcatel 1000 ADSL modem provided by my ISP. I get a regular IP address here instead of local numbering like the 10.*.*.* that you mention. You should still be ok though just number your internal net in the 192.168.*.* range also reserved for private nets. I do use dhcpcd instead of the other client and every now and then (like once every two months) it doesn't refresh the address like it should, but in those cases I just force it to and I'm back in business. For the most part it is trouble free. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Darren R.

Have it run with in a crontab to automate the entire thing and it's set. I just havn't had time to mess with it yet so I've been doing it the force method myself. Anyway, on the same subject, what is the best way to refresh the address would you say? I've been doing it the rcfirewall and rcdhclient restart method. dw> -- dw> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ dw> Darren R.

Go to www.pointman.org and download pmfirewall which is a utility to
generate ipchains scripts with masquerading and firewalling. You run the
utility and answer a few questions and you get a really good ipchains script
which perfectly handles dynamic IP. I'm using it here with my cable modem.
