I want to network 3 computers using my SuSE Linux box as a firewall. I have two nic(s) installed in the SuSE linux box and have set them as: eth0 with my DSL line's IP address, and eth1 with an IP address of 192.168.1.1 I have set the nic's address on the other computer (OS is WIN98) as 192.168.2.1 The third computer will be 192.168.3.1 (it will be a linux/win box). I've played with these setting every which way but the right way because I still don't get a connection. What do I need to put in the route.conf file to get this network up? Right now I have the following and its not working: #destination Dummy/gateway Netmask Device XXX.186.215.21 XXX.186.215.1 255.255.255.255 eth0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 eth1 default XXX.186.215.1 When I run "ifconfig" the out put looks ok.
