I have a problem that I haven't seen addressed in the archives. I have configured my gateway computer according to the Scenario 3 (a small university wants to use masquerading to provide internet access to its internal network) in the EXAMPLES file with the following settings: FW_DEV_EXT="eth0:0" FW_DEV_INT="eth0" FW_ROUTE="yes" FW_MASQUERADE="yes" FW_MASQ_NETS="192.168.0.0/24" Of course, I also set START_FW2="yes" in /etc/rc.config. Whenever I start the firewall, I am unable to ping the outside world from the gateway machine itself or any machine configured to use it as a gateway. This configuration worked with SuSEfirewall(1), but now that I'm using kernel 2.4.16, I really think I aught to use SuSEfirewall2. -- Sebastian J. Bronner waschtl@sbronner.com
