Also, for your client boxes, give them each the gateway of your server (the internal 192 address) and each at least 2 DNS entries, always give them the first one of your server.
not sure what you mean here are you refering the the DNS enteries given to me by my ISP?
Yep, normally two should have been given out. Without DNS you would have to know the IP's of the web pages.
How are you testing this?
Of course, you can have your own server run DNS if you want. Not necessary of course.
So for nothing is working.
Try yast1, from the command line:
yast
System administration
Network configuration
Configuration Name server
Enter the IP addresses of the name server. Use your domain name or home.com for the domain name.
Once this is saved, leave yast and do this:
rcnetwork restart rcroute restart
ping www.yahoo.com
If this works you are almost there.
Then go to /etc/rc.config.d/ directory
Not sure what version of SuSE you are on, anything 7.0 or less you can use firewall.rc.config SuSE 7.2 I'd definately use firewall2 as its iptables.
Once you have gone through this file and saved it you can restart this in this way for firewall (version 1):
rcSuSEfirewall start
For firewall2 its
SuSEfirewall2 start
Now try from the client machines.
Let us know how it goes (you can continue posting to the SuSE list).
My SuSE version is 7.1
