Re: [Devil-Linux-discuss] no NAT from newbie

STILL NOT CONNECTING

Hi Fred,

Probably, from my limited ability to read /etc/init.d/firewall.rules I see

# stop some smurf attacks
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts

# Stop ICMP redirect
for interface in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/accept_redirects; do
    echo "0" > ${interface}
done

In addition to ping, I tried to simply open pages with Mozilla and failed.

All I did was make sure my ethernet cards were supported and selected the
setup option configure as a 2 card firewall
Do I need to edit anything else?

Thanks,
Chip
