I marked my previous post as solved and maybe nobody can reply there but me,

Just in case i made a new thread..




I was about to add another NIC to my box to replace the ip aliases config i did and well, i dont have any more PCI slots...

Regardless of the security issue discussed in the thread about the insecurity with differents subnets in the same segment, check please if this config is "enough"

eth2 -> 192.168.1.0
eth2:0 ->192.168.50.0
eth1 and eth0 are the net interfaces, 1 router each to provide wan failover (not implemented here)


Hosts:
Interfaces
Masq
Policy
Rules
SECTION NEW
Zones

Problems / Doubs:

1) Is the hosts file required?

2) I guess i need doing masq from local to each external, and also from local to local even if they share the same interface, hence the eth2 eth2 in the masq file...

3) So is shorewall well implemented in these scritps to handle aliases?

I'm closing this thread, as it's unnecessary. I've marked your original thread back to unsolved (although marking as solved doesn't prevent members from replying), and I've also given it a courtesy bump for you. I'm not familiar with Shorewall so I can't be of much assistance, but surely someone will be along to help you out soon. Good luck!
