Hello All I have got a box with two networkcards both connection to a separate Network. In my book they tell me that linux by default forwards IP packets to the other network. I also compiled a kernel with "optimize as IP router" but the box doesn't forward anything.

From a WS in one of the Network I can ping both Network cards in the router but nothing in the other Network.
What am I doing wrong?
TCP/IP is not NetBios: You have to set the proper route to the other Network on every WS.
Thanks
