Hi, I am trying to set up a FC2 PC (tux1700) as a gateway to the internet via my modem ppp0 and another FC2 PC (tux) that will use the gateway through eth0. At the moment this does not work and I don't know if the problem is the gateway or the other PC or both. How do I best troubleshoot this problem ?
