routing i supose

I have a big problem... I have two subnets: 192.168.1.0 and 192.168.0.0. I
have a computer wich is conected to both of them... both of them works
perfectly. How can I make them to be able to ping each other?

To be more specificaly here is the scheme:

Code:



      A                          B

| 192.168.1.1 |----| 192.168.1.2 |              C

                            | 192.168.0.2 |----| 192.168.0.17 |

from computer B the ping works at both A and C
from A works ONLY at B
and of course from C works only on B... HEEEELP!
thanks!

Just enable routing - make sure that you have kernel support, then write a "1" in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward, e.g.
echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

To make that permanent, change the line in /etc/sysctl.conf to read

Quote:

# Controls IP packet forwarding
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1

from 0

Hope it helps,

And add a default gateway reference to machine B in both A & C.

route add default gw B
& edit /etc/sysconfig/network to show this gateway device.

... thanks... it works... and I was a little bit undocumented. Now... the final step. I really want to make all computers, from both subnets, to see in the same workgroup... any ideea? it's so complicated???

No, it's not hard. Only type the same workgroup in Samba configuration/Windows configuration (that's what I think you mean by writing about workgroups).

slackware 10

very helpful guys
I just wanted to add that if you use Slackware 10 you have to go to /etc/rc.d/ and make the file rc.ip_forward executable

chmod 755 /etc/rc.d/rc.ip_forward

cheers
