As there is no text based setup->networking-> network configuration in Fedora Core 1 I tried the redhat-config-network. It does let me define several network interfaces and routes. Only little probem is that if to reboot the box the routes and interfaces are defined, but routing is disabled (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward content is 0).
I find it strange that there is no "enable routing" option in redhat-config-network as it was in this previous text based setup->networking->.
i had never seen that this was possible. i have done it always via /etc/rc.local or via my firewall-script
Routing will start working if to "echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward".
other possibilities are
# grep ip_forw /etc/sysctl.conf net.ipv4.ip_forward = 0 change it to "1" # sysctl -p
# redhat-config-proc network / ip / ip[2] / ip_forwarding save and activate your configuration
Is this a bug or does I get it all wrong?
