What I have is ethernet ISP that I want to rute for the internal network (over ETH1). Whatever I tried, seems like it is not working. I am using a dual CPU system with SCSI drives, and IDE RAID 0 (for the SMB services). This pretty much stops me from compiling the Kernel as well. No matter how I compile it, something is wrong, even after I made the image file for modules during the boot. Regardless, I tried with IPChains first. I sat up very simple rules, as I found in one of the HOWTO's. This worked fine... untill my server started freezing, every 10 min or so. Once I removed those IPCHain rules from the rc.local, server works fine. Than I went on with reading the FAQs and HOWTOs... While reading some very usefull stuff on IP-Masquerade-HOWTO that relates to Kernel 2.4.x. Problem is I cannot implement this, even though I use a Kernel (out of the box) with enabled IPv4 and that has the proper programs (as described in HOWTO). I get messages when I am booting the system. Anyone knows maybe of any proggies that can do the routing on my BOX? :) I am totaly lost now.. kernel compile didn't work (the SCSI does not boot, resulting in my /usr being unavailable, and a message that X respawns too fast, disabled for 5 min.), the multiple HOWTOs just make me more confused than I ever was... Is there any hope for RH 7.1 out of the box and IP-Masquerade, and if there is, please tell me how.
Thanks.
Thanks.
