Hi,
I have a little network with a Linux Redhat 5.1 with 2 ethernet cards on
two different networks. Each of those card are relied at a Win95 PC.
Each W95 can ping his card and the card where is attached on the Linux PC.
But the card on W95 cant ping the other card in the Linux and in the other
Win95 !
I think my routing table is ok but i'm not sure!
Win95................................Linux Redhat
5.1......................................Win95
131.138.48.91...........131.138.48.92.......131.138.47.2....................
131.138.47.3
May I add a gateway in my routing table ? How ?

Thanks a lot !

Have you enabled IP forwarding on the Linux box? Your configuration would give
you the symptoms described if Linux IP forwarding were disabled.
