Hi there, Kindly check following things... gateway address on ur Linux sys used as router should be ur ISP providers gateways check the dns address the u mentioned in resolve.conf (note same address should be there on all the machine connecte to the router) important which type of connection are using PPP or ETH (accordingly masquerade the address) if set it wrong u wont able to ping or telnet to other machine.. Note the machines which are connected to router should have their gateway address as that of linux machine used as router..
Do check your network scripts.
Hope i am clear ..

Hi,
I want to configure a Linux system as a router (u can say IP Forwarding). This system can be used to connect two different IP Address schemes & will work as a router.
I've tried it with RedHat 8 & 9 also but no success. I've checked that service iptable is also not running.
I've also enabled IP_FORWARD with echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward.
I'm not able to ping or telnet to other side network.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
