Problem for enable ip_foward in IPTABLES

gnu_scream · 06-10-2004, 07:34 PM

Hello There

I´m Enabling NAT on Iptables (RH 9, Kernel 2.4.6)

Why the command echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward is returning bash - no such file or directory? The file exists on the dir, but the error occurs always i´ve tried to enable this...

Could be a typo?
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

as root

edit /etc/sysctl.conf and set

net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1

#sysctl -p
