ipcop-firewall

i'm just trying to set up a firewall for our internet connection by using IPCOP;

our internet connection is throu a router and it's frame relay type(leased line)

so i wanted to connect the router directly to the IPCOP box (firewall)
i selected networking as as GREEN & RED

our internal network series 192.168.168.0 netmask 255.255.255.0

i gave the green card an ip 192.168.168.7 which connect to the internal network (Gateway)

the other card (eth1) is given 10.0.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.252 i want to connect router to this
the router ip is 10.0.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.252

my problem is i can't ping the router from my internal network when i connect router to ipcop box

i cannot ping the router from IPCOP box as well

how can i go about it? how cn i route this ip!
help appreciated

 

But IPCop is also a router. Why do you want to put two routers in a line?

 

ipcop -firewall

already we've got a cisco router but i want ipcop act like a firewall to controll the brosing of the users
