Hello list,
I was wondering, because I've never been able to do
this, if or how you can have a Linux computer access the Internet via a Win98
gateway PC. The gateway runs 602LanSuite for its routing/firewall services. Note
that there are numerous WinXP machines behind the Win98 machine that access the
net through it.
I've installed Linux (numerous distributions) on a
box behind the gateway and network it successfully. Ping works, al the services
work on hte local network as expected. I bring up the eth0 interface, do a
route command:
route add -net 192.168.0.0 gw
192.168.0.1
which adds an entry to the route tables but doesn't
help my cause. I've noticed the "metric" value is set to 1 when I do this.
Should this be different?
Nathan.
