Linux Questions
Hello
I'm a non-certified 2000 Admin, and I'm trying to learn linux. From what I've gathered up(from various sites), I believe I can generate a LAN, and NAT the connection together. I would like some input on this:
Keep in mind that I have already set a static IP address to eth0.
The IP address (LAN)blocks I want are:
Linux Server: 10.0.1.1
IP Blocks: 10.0.1.2-10.0.1.253
Subnet Mask: 255.0.0.0
Gateway: 10.0.1.254
The external Internet IP is handled via PPP, and it is dynamic.
Question #1: Do I setup eth0's gateway to 10.0.1.254?
-----------------
Please run through these steps/commands and tell me if they are correct:
(the clients are windows machines)
"route add 255.255.255.255 dev eth0"
*edit /etc/dhcpd.conf*
default-lease-time 600;
max-lease-time 7200;
option subnet-mask 255.0.0.0;
option broadcast-address 10.0.1.255;
option routers 10.0.1.254;
option domain-name-servers (external dns), (external DNS);
option domain-name "matrix.local" ;
subnet 10.0.1.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 {
range 10.0.1.2 10.0.1.253;
}
*save, exit*
"touch /var/state/dhcp/dhcpd.leases"
"ipchains -A input -s 10.0.1.0/24 -p TCP -j REDIRECT"
"ipchains -P forward -s 10.0.1.0/24 -j MASQ"
*edit /etc/sysconfig/network*
*change FORWARD_IPV4=false to true*
*exit*
*reboot*
goto Windows machines and setup DHCP.
Will this work, or am I missing steps?
