I'm running SuSE6.3 and i'm looking to run my server as a dial up proxy server. basically the modem would be my connection to the net, and eth0 the connection to my local lan, which has 4 systems on it. I figure I will be using a combination of ipchains and dial up script. what sthe best route to getting this up and going

You need IPMasquerading and Diald (for example). IPMasquerading is really easy to configure with SuSE, you only need to edit your /etc/rc.config and change this lines: MSQ_START="yes" MSQ_NETWORKS="192.168.0.0/24 192.168.1.0/24 192.168.2.0/24" MSQ_DEV="ppp0" This is for my lan home, that has three subnets(192.168.0.0 192.168.1.0 192.168.2.0, 24 is the netmask is equal to 255.255.255.0) and make external connections through analogic modem (ppp) that has serial port 0 (ppp0) After, do SuSEconfig Diald is easy to configure too. -- ---------------- Simeó Reig simeo@tinet.org Barcelona (SPAIN) ----------------- -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
