Hi Mark Personally I prefer modules since I can load and unload as required. The in my init script for the firewall I have: # Enable chaining echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_dynaddr # Chain timing /sbin/ipchains -M -S 7200 10 160 # Forward Dialup connections /sbin/ipchains -P forward DENY /sbin/ipchains -A forward -s 10.0.0.0/24 -j MASQ # Forward the 2nd ethernet through the gateway ipchains -A forward -i eth1 -j MASQ Chris On Wed, 14 Jun 2000 07:11:31 -0400, Mark B Withers wrote:
Hello everybody!
I'm trying to set-up multiple network cards to work under S.u.S.E. 6.1.
I had to re-compile my kernel in order to use my machine as a gateway/firewall and wish to enable bridging between the two nic's. They are both 3 Com 509's, but for some reason the kernel will only recognise one under the new "experimental (to me)" kernel 2.2.16.
My original kernel (2.2.5) will recognise both nics and seems to use modules for the driver. On the newer kernel I loaded the nic driver as a builtin and therefore there is no module.
Should I recompile the kernel and use modules for the nic cards instead?
Thanks for listening!
Mark
