Will this work?

Can someone tell me if this will work. I want to share my internet connection from my linux box and this how I was going to do

it.

ifcfg-eth0:

DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=dhcp

ifcfg-eth1:

DEVICE=eth1
IPADDR=192.168.0.1
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none

/etc/sysconfig/network file:

NETWORKING=yes
FORWARD_IPV4=yes
GATEWAYDEV=eth0

and last enter the following commands:

/sbin/ipchains -P forward DENY
/sbin/ipchains -s 192.168.0.1/24 -j MASQ

Will all this work? I'm using RH7.3

Thanks, Walter.

For me it looks correct.

Ok, now lets say I have to use the iptables command. What would I type instead of the ipchains I just gave?

iptables -P FORWARD DENY
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.0.0/24 -J MASQUERADE
