by I've read the mini-howto's, checked numerous places, & still can't get this
thing to work, so... here goes.
I've got 2 ethernet cards, 1 on a hub to my other machines, & the new one
set up connected to the cable modem. I can dial into the server (prime
cable/chicago) w/ the ppp modem just fine, but can only ping machines on
the same subnet as the ip I end up with. eth1 ends up just sitting there
doing nothing (pinging 10.0.0.1- which they gave me- works, but no other
numbers).
For anyone else out there w/ a similar setup (com21 or similar
downstream-only cable modem), the following info would be extremely
helpful:
- 'route -n' and 'ifconfig' output
- 'ipchains -L -n -v' output (or similar ipfwadm listing)
- whether dhcpcd was necessary/used on eth[01], what flags, etc. (it would
seem to me that this would only make sense on a 2-way cable modem...?)
- any additional tricks necessary to get it set up & working properly
Any help greatly appreciated. TIA.
