newbie, subnets ...


hi!

the definition of my problem will most likely sound a little bit wired, but I will give it a try ...

I've got a network layout as below

INTERNET <- FIREWALL1
<- Main Office Network
|
Machine1
|
Machine2
|
Printer1
|
FIREWALL2 <- MyMachine1

my machine is "MyMachine1", Im behind a firewall to separate my network from the main office network. My problem is, how do I reach the machines and printers in the main office network from my subnet?

we have access to the internet using a DNS setting but Im not able to "ping" other "local" resources.

Anyone? please clearify this! is it a simple Firewall/Router setting?

thanks

If its a simple matter that they are on a different subnet then all you need to do is add a static route for the office network
