How about this suggestion ? Configure the network cards in the gateway as 192.168.1.254 for the internet connection (I assume you are using DSL ??), and eth1 as 192.168.1.250 for the LAN. You then specify 192.168.1.250 as the default gateway. And disable SuSEfirewall2 and use www.shorewall.net Jon => -----Original Message----- => From: Xavier Sosnowska [mailto:xso@ifrance.com] => Sent: Friday, 3 January 2003 17:14 => To: suse-linux-e@suse.com => Subject: [SLE] problem to setup a gateway => => => Hi there, => => I have a problem to setup a gateway at home. => On the gateway machine, the 2 network cards (192.168.0.1 => for the LAN and => => 192.168.2.22 for the Internet connection) are properly => configured.
