[ale] gateway

[Glen Bankston]

Hello,

Unable to get IP forwarding and gateway to work.  Upgraded to 5.0 today.

Have 3 W95 TCP/IP machines running with Linux server, and Samba is
running fine.
Local LAN is 10.0.2.x  ISP is A.B.C.1 netmask is 255.255.255.0
Manual dial connection is fine, and can browse the web in Linux machine.

Have W95 machines show Gateway as the Linux machine: 10.0.2.1
All machines can 'ping' each other on the LAN, send and receive files no
problem.

Do not know what to enter in GUI control panel in MetroX under Network
Routing.
Most anything i enter there kills the internet connection ability.
Right now, only
IP forwarding is checked.

i execute this in rc.local:

ipfwadm -F -f
ipfwadm -F -p deny
ipfwadm -F -a masquerade -W ppp0 -S 10.0.2.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0

I also have the nameserver provided to me by my ISP in resolv.conf


Any ideas what i am doing wrong?
