starting up
Hi I m a newbie in using slackware linux. I am trying to set up a linux server.
This server has 2 NIC one that goes to cisco router and one in internal switch. I have installed disk 1 and 2 (installation disk). Now where should I start now ? I have read few documentation and I am still not clear. I have also downloaded source disk 3 and 4. Whats this for? Now obviously I want 20 client Pc to access this linux machine to go out to use internet. I just want a server that can control the the flow of internet.Like I want to allow certain sites for my client pcs to access. I know I have to set up squidproxy, samba, DNS. But what shall I do after installing. I in a page where its says root@LAN: ..... (this LAN is my host name) |
you would need to setup proper ips for both the nics. use the netconfig command and configure them.

one word: dnsmasq

thanks for kind help. I think one of my NIC is not comming up. It only list one card. Before loading slackware I added new NIC which is compatible with Linux( as it said on the back of the packet)
how to initialise this new NIC. |
thank you for that...
when I type ifconfig -a I cannot see the eth0 portion fully. The screen starts at inet addr:.............. eth1 link..... is something wrong? |
