Re: setting up a 10.1 box to become a router

Hello all,


I have tried setting up my SuSE 10.1 box to be a router but apparently
without luck.

The eth0 is set to automatic address setup via DHCP and is connected to
another network where the name server 1 has the address 192.168.1.1
wherefore I have set that address in the 'Primary Name Server IP' field.
So the eth1 I have given the address 192.168.100.2 and made it active in
the DHCP server at which I've then set the first IP adress to
192.168.100.100 and the last to 192.168.100.250. And I have put the
address 192.168.100.2 in the 'Default Gateway (Router)' field
Further I have set the 'Default Gateway' in Routing Configuration to
192.168.1.1 (the address of the name server 1).

The problem lies in the box meant to be a router. Because when I plug in
another computer and try to ping an address on the Internet the reply is
'unknown host' but connected directly the ping is a success.

Anyone who can tell where I've setup the router wrong?


Thanks in advance,

Chris
Is your local PC connected directly to the router? In that case which
cable do you use?
