Ok, I'm about to install Slack 12.1 on a server with two network interfaces.
The way the networks are supposed to be configured is like this.
Net1: (LAMP,internet only)
Static public IP address provided by ISP
Multiple domains, ftp, email server hosted on this network
In other words, it's a full LAMP server.
Net2: (Samba file server on local network only)
Dynamic IP address provided from a local Linksys router.
It's on a local, private network
The router gets a dynamic ip address from the same ISP as the first network interface
The ISP is providing one static IP that's given to the server and several dynamic IP's of which one is taken by the Linksys router.
The Linksys router manages a few local computers running (unfortunatelly) Windows.
The way the network is set up
Code:
ISP --> Cable modem --> Network switch --> LAMP Server (Slack)
|
--> Linksys router --> local network
Can this be done with Slackware?
The goal is to have the server be LAMP on Net1
and also be a Samba fileserver on Net2.
My main problem is I don't know what to choose for the main gateway and for the dns.
Do I have to set up Bind to help with resolving the networks?
So basicaly the two network interfaces serve two different networks which are independent.
