I dunno if these questions have been asked before or if there's something I'm just doing wrong, but for some reason I have a problem
Sisela installs quite nicely, gets an IP and sets up routing without too much bother, and as far as I can see everything works, i.e. sisela can ping www.google.com , sisela can ping another box attached to it (172.24.12.34) and that box can ping sisela. Everything works fine.
At this point I try setting up IP Masquerading/IP Forwading with the following
echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
iptables -A FORWARD -o eth0 -i eth1 -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT iptables -A FORWARD -s 172.24.0.0/16 -o eth0 -j ACCEPT iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
However upon trying to ping www.google.com on 172.24.12.34, nothing happens. This is quite odd, since I've used the same code (with stuff like logging and some basic port-filtering) on both slackware and debian installations and its worked more or less perfectly.
have I assumed something sisela needs to be told explicity, or is there another way of doing this or something ?
Sorry if this is incredibly trivial and a waste of time, but I'm somewhat perplexed.
Oh and can the 0.3a code be compiled from the 0.3 ? I'd like sisela to boot with "pcifix" automatically and have a feeling I'll have to compile it into the code.
Thanks for your help, and thanks for what is otherwise a very cool disc :)
