Hello, I have a small home network which sits behind a linux box running SuSE 7.2Pro (update), kernel 2.4.6 and SuSEfirewall2. One of the machines behind the firewall is a laptop running SuSE 7.2Pro. I am trying to set it up so that the laptop can access the Internet over the network through the firewall. So, the firewall would be its gateway. My /etc/hosts looks like this: 127.0.0.1 localhost 192.168.0.1 hussar.nuthole.de hussar 192.168.0.2 graves.nuthole.de graves 192.168.0.3 dragoon.nuthole.de dragoon 192.168.0.4 lancer.nuthole.de lancer 192.168.0.5 pontifex.nuthole.de pontifex 192.168.0.6 scout.nuthole.de scout 192.168.0.99 dragoon.nuthole.de Dragoon is the linux box running SuSEfirewall2. It connects to the Internet using ISDN and I4L. Graves, running Mac OS 9.1, can access the Internet over dragoon, as can scout, my daughter's Win98 box. So I know that masquerading/forwarding is working on my gateway/firewall. What do I need to do to the linux laptop pontifex to get it to access the Internet over dragoon? I have tried configuration with yast and yast2. I set dragoon/192.168.0.3 up as the nameserver and as the gateway/PtP in the dialog boxes. What am I missing? Is there a file you need to see to figure this out? Cheers, Sean PS- Be warned. I am planning an email to you all to ask about a move to T-DSL and 802.11b using a modification of this setup! -- Theo.
