Folks,
I know little about routing, IP masquerading/spoofing and proxying, or their
interaction, however a problem has come to my attention (see atatched email)
such that two networks need to be connected through a linux box with two
ethernet cards (one card plugged into a cable modem NTL) and the other is
visible to windows machines on the local network.
Any information or experiences would be appreciated as I'm sure this has
already been done.
Thanks in advance,
John.

Hi,
I have a network problem which I think is related to routing. Having read
your article www.dc.net/twallace/linux_route on simple routing and followed
the instructions the problem remains.....
I have a machine with Suse Linux 7.1 which has two network cards (192.168.0.1
and 62.254.2.69). 192.168.0.1 goes to a switch which is connected to window
machines, the 62.254.2.69 (from dhcp) is connected to a cable modem and goes
to the internet. I am running squid http proxy server to deal with any web
request on the network, but how do I get pop3, smtp, napster (port 8888 I
think) and other internet protocols. Is this something to do with routing
and/or ip-masquerading? Is there a good book?
Thanks
Mick
