Problem : Not able to ping outside local network from workstation.
What does work:
DHCP server setup and hands out Lan IP's defined through the range in
dhcpd.conf
Server can ping outside network
Workstation can ping server
Have used sample configs for Shorewall which outline my lan setup.
I have checked to make sure IP Forwarding is turned on, and that
iptables,shorewall, and dhcp server are started, ifconfig on server
shows eth0 bounded to the ISP and eth1 bounded to lan ip given out by
dhcp server.
IFConfig on workstation shows IP given out by DHCP server as well.
On the workstation, what is the output of route ? Or of
traceroute www.bbc.co.uk
or
tracert 212.58.224.111
Thanks,
James.
ok once i added the correct dns stuff in my /etc/resolv.conf file it was
able to resolve url's rather than by ip.. so im guessing setting the
correct dns info. in all workstations in their resolv.conf file is the
correct way to resolve ip's outside of the network? using the setup i
have of course
