have you enabled ip_forwarding (echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward)?
AppleTalk, ftp, samba, http and rsync (base install, with IP forward enabeled, no firewall). After all the box should also be a router, ^^^^^^^^^^^^
I thought that the entry in rc.config "IP forward = 'yes'" is the only thing I have to do to enable routing?? Or do you mean that, in addition I also have to edit /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward? Do I have to doublecheck this entries?
No, because "echoing" 1 into /proc/sys/and-so-on is what the entry "IP forward=yes" in /etc/rc.config does... Have you installed any packet of the Suse Firewall collection (Personal Firewall/SuSEfirewall)? Yours, Christian -- Christian Schmidt schmidtc@chemie.uni-hamburg.de
