internal routing
« on: August 17, 2001, 05:40:14 AM »
I am experienced in Redhat, but new to E-smith.


I recently installed E-smith 4.1.2 on a proxy/gateway machine containing 3 networks cards -

2 for internal networks 192.168.100.0/24 and 192.168.200.0/24 and 1 for the external gateway 10.0.0.0/8

These work fine.

The problem is that I also have two internally routed networks that route through 192.168.100.0/24 to get to the proxy (the routes are currently added in rc.local). The proxy won't talk to these networks at all as it does not see them as being local since they do not connect directly to the server using an interface card.

I have tried using e-smith-manager to add these networks using the "other local networks" option, but it rejects them
since they are not connected directly to the server.

Is there any way short of manual configuration (which seems to break as much as it fixes since it involves changing the ipchains, squid.conf, and hosts.deny files) to get these two routed internal networks recognized as local?

Cheers,
