I am trying to set up a linux box to route my home LAN over rod runner. I am using Redhat 7.1. The system is installed fine and both network cards work properly. However, I can't seem to get the IP forwarding to work properly. I've been using the ipchains NHF at www.linuxnewbie.org as a reference, because I am not all that familiar with the OS yet.
Every time I try to ping an internet address from a local computer I get a network is unreachable error. I know the network is physically installed properly because it functions fine under Win2k.
The local network IP address of the server is 10.1.1.1 with a subnet of 255.255.255.0. The road runner IP is dynamic with a subnet of 255.255.0.0. There is no firewall on currently.
Ok now the questions start. First off, is ipchains the best way to do this? I use Winroute under Win2k to accomplish this task.
Secondly, if ipchains is the corrrect program to use could you give me an example shell script for my situation? The examples on Linux Newbie aren't working for me, even though I edited in my information.
Thanks for any help.
