Hi,

I am trying to configure a linux machine as a simple router.
Here is more details regarding my current configuration

    Machine A(10.1.1.1/255.0.0.0)
                route - 20.0.0.0 10.1.1.2
      |
      |
      |
    Linux Router ( has 2 NICs) - NIC1 - 10.1.1.2
                                 NIC2 - 20.1.1.1
                                 route 20.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 NIC2
                                 route 10.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 NIC1

      |
     Machine B(20.1.1.2/255.255.255.0)
               route - 10.0.0.0 20.1.1.1

ip_forward is set to 1 on the Linux Router.

I can ping from A and B to both legs of the Linux Router.
I can't ping A to B.

Is there something I am doing wrong ?

Thanks,
