Hi,
help pls.
I use linux IPCop (ip=192.168.1.1) as a dhcp-server (ip from=192.168.1.10 to=192.168.1.30) and linux suse 10.2 (ip=192.168.1.60). The suse have access to internet. My question is: how to set the linux dhcp-server/clien and suse so, that the linux dhcp-cliens can also access to internet. Is that possible?
Thanks.

Looking at your other posts I am guessing that you are trying run IPcop under VMWare together with SUSE on a single box. This is not going to work. Ditch the IPCop and setup SUSE as a DHCP server and firewall. There are plenty of tutorials on how to do this.

Thanks for the answer...
I have:
One pc with linux suse (192.168.1.60) have access to internet via gprs,
one pc with ipcop as dhcp/router-server (192.168.1.1),
one pc with centos + vmware (you right) (192.168.1.40),
three other linux pcs with distros and one pc with windows xp (dynamic ip 192.168.1.10~30). All pcs and one AP connect to one switch and the linux use wlan via AP (access point) to connect to the same switch/lan.

The running ipcop's pc is an old pc, no usb + no pci.
I set: all pcs with dynamic ip have gateway=192.168.1.1, the linux suse have gateway=none and the ipcop have gateway=192.168.1.60(=linux suse's ip).

Ping from one pc to others is successfull, but the access to internet is not.

help...

OK - if this diagram:

internet<-->gprs<-->|suse|<--->|ipcop|<---->|switch|------ wired network & WAP

reflects your current setup you still have to either ditch IPCop or upgrade its box to something decent (min celeron 600/128Mb - I prefer a PIII/500 min with 256Mb for real work). I suspect your main problem is GPRS/IPCop compatibility which is why I recommend option 1 (GPRS is already working on the SUSE box).

1) Ditch IPCop - I haven't used SUSE but I think this will get you going:

http://www.swerdna.net.au/linhowtonic.html resulting in:

internet<-->gprs<-->|suse|<--->|switch|------ wired network & WAP

2) IPCop latest version (1.4.18) on a decent box. I haven't connected with GPRS myself but I believe it can be done. I suggest you get a old HD (min 3Gb) and, using an existing up to spec box, check you can connect via your usb GPRS modem before putting too much effort into this solution. This will result in:

internet<-->gprs<-->|ipcop|<--->|switch|------ wired network & WAP incl SUSE

this is first prize as it is the way IPCop is designed to work.

3) Check out the other firewall distros - Clarkconnect, Smoothwall etc. This option will still need a better box than you are currently using for IPCop, the days of 486/PIs running decent firewalls are history.

yes!.... now have all the pcs access to internet.

topology now:
|internet|<-->|gprs|<-->|suse|<-->|usb wlan|<-(((-)))->
<-(((-)))->|wap|<-->|switch|<-->|ipcop|
|switch|<-->|other pcs|

setting by suse:
ifconfig wlan0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o ppp0 -j MASQUERADE

setting by ipcop:
green ip=192.168.1.1
red: ip=192.168.0.60 gateway=192.168.0.1

setting by other pcs:
ip=from dhcp
gateway=192.168.1.1
nameserver in /etc/resolv.conf = /etc/resolv.conf from suse (i don't know why...)
