I'm having troubles setting up my OpenSuSE computer to be the default gateway in my home LAN.

I have two network cards, one to connect to the internal network (10.0.0.x) and one to connect through PPPoE to my ISP. I can connect to the Internet on the machine, but the other computers on my LAN can't.

Each machine gets a DHCP address from this machine (I've turned off all other DHCP servers), and doing a ping test to the net it can resolve the name of an address eg ping Google will give me
PING Google (66.102.11.147) .....

So I know that the DNS server is working, and the PPPoE is working, and the DHCP is working, but it's not getting a route to the Internet.

If anyone could help that would be great

It's frustrating me!!

Hi
Pls. make sure the following is configured:

1. ipv4 forward is enabled??
2. Gateway IP should be eth0 not eth1 or 2.
3. confirm the router gateway ip on both server and client system.

with regards,
