Hi, I found something annoying (dunno if it is intended or not, but it
doesn't work for m at least.
I've got 2 NIC's and I use this box to forward internet to
another one/whole network.
I use eth0 as internet connection, eth1 witþ a static IP and dnsmasq
as DNS/DHCP server.
Now if I configure eth1 with the netcardconfig, networking doesn't
work any longer. now I found in the home-router-howto at gentoo that
the network and gateway option aren't used, so that solved the
problem. Maybe this is intentional, or the script should make a
difference between an interface which 'receives' internet or one that
forwards it.
BTW i've written a little script to enable routing with iptables, if
you want it, drop me a note.
