Stefan,
Thanks for the help. I finally turned on ip_forward but I'm still not
able to get internet access from the machine on my local area network.
Here is the output of the netstat -rn command:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination???? Gateway???????? Genmask???????? Flags?? MSS Window?
irtt Iface
192.168.1.0???? 0.0.0.0???????? 255.255.255.0?? U??????? 40 0?????????
0 eth1
24.98.96.0????? 0.0.0.0???????? 255.255.252.0?? U??????? 40 0?????????
0 eth0
127.0.0.0?????? 0.0.0.0???????? 255.0.0.0?????? U??????? 40 0?????????
0 lo
0.0.0.0???????? 24.98.96.1????? 0.0.0.0???????? UG?????? 40 0?????????
0 eth0
Does that look right? The default gateway for eth1 is 24.98.98.148 but
I don't see that in the routing table. Any ideas? I have RedHat 7.2
Thanks.
