Message-Id: List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: lartc@vger.kernel.org Hello: I have a block of static IP addresses on which I want to run several Windows machines. Since I want to have a firewall, I was thinking of using 1 IP address for a linux server that will act as a firewall for the entire setup. So, here is a diagram: [Internet] -- [Linux Server] -- switch -- [Internal machines] The linux server and the internal machines all have static IP addresses which are public to the Internet. How can I set-up routing so the Linux server is "transparent" to the other machines? Thanks, Neil. -- Neil Aggarwal JAMM Consulting, Inc.
