RE: rc.local in debian (was: Ip Masquerading)

["Ronald Castillo" <ronaldace2@cantv.net>]

Thanks a lot for your help!!  I could finally get past that step, but
now I came across another problem:

I have compiled the kernel with the necessary modules, installed the "IP
Masq" script and all that, but it still doesn't work.  I've tried
pinging my linux box from Windows XP with no success.

I was thinking that I should configure my secondary LAN card (the one
that connects to my "internal" network) in the /etc/network/interfaces
card, but I don't know what to place there.  I have already configured
the LAN card that connects me to the "outside world" without problems.

I would really appreciate any help about this.

Thanks a lot for helping me so far..

That's pretty much what the FAQ advises:
