Hi,
I am trying to make a router using a FC4. I have 2 NICs in the machine.
Install FC4 using minimium. Eth0 is set to DHCP, connected to an ethernet
modem and ETH1 has IP 192.168.1.1, netmask 255.255.255.0 connected to a
switch. Installation was a success and rebooted the box. Clients machines
are unable to ping 192.168.1.1. But when i unplug the modem and reboot,
clients are ablt to ping 192.168.1.1. I realised if the box booted up
both ETH0 and ETH1, clients are able to ping 192.168.1.1. But if i ifdown
ETH0 and ifup ETH0, clients are able to get reply from 192.168.1.1.
Can someone tell me what should I do?
Best regards
/etc/sysctl.conf:
# Controls IP packet forwarding
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 0
This is my /etc/sysctl.conf
# Kernel sysctl configuration file for Red Hat Linux

# For binary values, 0 is disabled, 1 is enabled. See sysctl(8) and
# sysctl.conf(5) for more details.
# Controls IP packet forwarding
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 0
# Controls source route verification
net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter = 1
# Controls the System Request debugging functionality of the kernel
kernel.sysrq = 0
# Controls whether core dumps will append the PID to the core filename.
# Useful for debugging multi-threaded applications.
kernel.core_uses_pid = 1
