Hi! I have routing problem between lan > wan wan > lan I have terminated vsat connection on a secondary lan card of linux I am able to ping remote gateways by ipchains but remote pcs are not able to ping local machines is there any thing like routing other than route command (as such ipchains would be NAT) how about routing like routers in linux if it is possible what are the commands for doing it ???? other than "ipchains" and "route" Please Help.
Thanks,
Hiten.

[snip] If you want to set up a linux box as a router, ask it to do packet forwarding. echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward should do that. Hope that helps! abhijeet
ah! depends on what u want the linux box to do! RIP it supports, dunno abt RIP2 if u want to do OSPF n stuff, chk out Zebra
oh yeah..dont think of MPLS though..;)
