Most modern linux distributions like SuSE or Mandrake have graphical system management tools to enable internet connection sharing.
I'm using Suse 9.3 and found it is very user friendly in this aspect but i'm using a Windows Base Network with about 100 pc's and 30 servers that i control just got tired of Windows XP i guess and needed a new challenge and linux is a challenge for me. Peace Angel
the Internet connection sharing problem the set the Internet connection sharing problem the set """" Let's get started then: Edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 - This is the main config file for the first (internet facing) interface. It should read : (you can leave out anything on a line after #) DEVICE=eth0 BOOTPROTO=static IPADDR=192.168.1.2 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 NETWORK=192.168.1.0 BROADCAST=192.168.1.255 ONBOOT=yes MII_NOT_SUPPORTED=yes Edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 - This is the main config file for the second (LAN facing) interface. It should read : DEVICE=eth1 BOOTPROTO=static IPADDR=192.168.3.1 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 NETWORK=192.168.3.0 BROADCAST=192.168.3.255 ONBOOT=yes MII_NOT_SUPPORTED=yes /etc/resolv.conf should contain the nameserver address(es) - put the address of your ISPs nameserver right at the top. eg: nameserver 195.20.224.165You can have multiple nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx lines - the resolver will try them all in turn if one fails The default gateway and your hostname go in /etc/sysconfig/network: HOSTNAME=localhost NETWORKING=yes GATEWAY=192.168.1.1 We then need to set up packet forwarding: Put the following command at the beginning of /etc/sysctl.conf net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 Then 'turn off' the redirection to squid: Install iptables - type "urpmi iptables" as root, or use the package manager in the start menu or mcc Add the following code to the bottom of /etc/rc.d/rc.local. iptables -t nat -D PREROUTING -i eth0 -j loc_dnatThis will delete a rule from your firewall - later, when you understand more, you can change shorewall and remove this line, but for now we'll keep it simple.
