Hello Guys, Thanks for the great feed back on firewalls. I have a question about routing tables. I have two network cards in the comp that I am planning to use as an firewall. Both of them have pulic ip addresses. One card is going to be connected to the router and another to the lan. How should I write the routing table so that all the traffic is passed on from the card attached to the lan. My routing table at present is Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 64.240.90.231 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 eth1 64.240.90.230 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 eth0 64.240.90.224 * 255.255.255.240 U 0 0 0 eth0 64.240.90.224 * 255.255.255.240 U 0 0 0 eth1 127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo default 64.240.90.225 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1 default 64.240.90.225 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 -- Best regards, Vinay mailto: vinay@inlightnet.net - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.rutgers.edu
