Hi, I just install new setup of Debian Sarge 3.1 (I was following instructions from Perfect Debian Sarge 3.1 installation). I was creating pppoe connection and now on eth0. Now I have second network card in computer (eth1)! How can i compile debian, that i can go on internet with Windows XP? On windows network I allready have everything necessary (IP,sub-net mas, Gateway, DNS)! I have systems connected trought switch. Here is scheme of my network at home
ok I found litlle howTo like this Now I can ping both of computers, but with windows i still can not go to web sites. Why? P.S.: Everytime when I reboot Debian and then in ifconfig eth1 is gone. Anyone know why is like that?
You have to set up nat forwarding on debian box using iptables ... I is not so easy but you can use firehol for example .. it is great software which can help you with seting up iptables ... http://firehol.sourceforge.net/
Aha, but what if i allready have created firewall with iptables but not inserted in init.d yet? than will help? If I understand you, its all about iptables?
Yes is all about iptables .. sorry for my English But firewall itself is not enough .. You must set up NAT forwarding ... google can help you .. I use firehol ... it is easy and quick .. so I cannot help you with command for iptables .. Try iptables -L -n -t nat .. this show your nat setting .. if no rules shows you have no nat forwarding
