Guys,
Not sure what is going on with my new openSUSE 11.2 install, but I am unable to use my server any more as a router. I have checked and ip_forward is on, but not of my boxes are able to get out. I have searched the opensuse forms and I see that I have all the settings that everyone recommends but still no access.
You will have to describe your configuration with some detail: crystal balls are quite unreliable nowdays. AFAIK, you only need to change a few things in the susefirewall file, it is really easy.
Is these two things really that bad in 11.2?
Not to my knowledge.
Chuck, Yes, please describe your setup. ASCII drawings work fine. I don't know about 11.2, but from 11.0 on, I have been unable to get IP forwarding to work with the old "dial-in-server" config, using ppp to handle 'inbound' modem connections to act as your own 'dial-up' server. Up to 10.2, 10.3 worked fine. 11.0 on, ppp no longer talked tcp over the routes for some reason. Not saying that is your problem, but maybe it figures into what you are doing. We'll know when we get your setup. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
