I am running a public core router using pr= ivate=20 links from my provider.
 
Details:
RH7.3
9 interfaces (all Intel)
eth0 is default gateway and has a private = IP=20 address
all other interfaces are links to other ro= uters or=20 networks
eth3 has a public IP address
 
The core router will rarely need to access= sites=20 out on the internet, but when it does it cannot get there because the eth0 = has a=20 private IP address. Is there a way to force the router to use the ip addres= s=20 from eth3 to access sites on the internet? If so, how would I route traffic= =20 originating from eth3 to the internet? I have tried a few policy statements= =20 coupled with some separate rules and tables to no avail. All I am getting i= s=20 Destination host unreachable when I issue the command "ping -v -I eth3=20 www.yahoo.com".
 
Please advise. Thank you in advance.
