I have a Redhat 9 Box with Two nics. NIC1 is my Private Network. NIC2 is connected to my PPP0 interface for internet access. I need to add NIC3 which will be second Private Network. 2. Both NIC1 and NIC3 Should be able to Connect VIA NIC2 to Internet. NIC1 Should be able to connect to NIC3 but NIC3 must not be ABLE to Connect to NIC1 's network I have my network already setup as in 1 above and it working very well. I'm using iptables to get this running. Please mail me offline if more info needed or with a suggestion Christo Perhaps something like this. NIC1=eth0 NIC2=ppp0 NIC3=eth1 modprobe ip_nat_ftp iptables -P INPUT DROP iptables -P OUTPUT DROP iptables -P FORWARD DROP iptables -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT iptables -A OUTPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT #Allow everything out to $NIC2 iptables -A FORWARD -o $NIC2 -j ACCEPT #Accept only connections from $NIC1 to $NIC3 iptables -A FORWARD -i $NIC1 -o $NIC3 -j ACCEPT iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o $NIC2 -j MASQUERADE sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 /Klintan
