191156 2003-11-13 20:18:00 Okay....
All the PC's are on the same LAN...
If you're wanting them to run traffic through a Proxy, on your Linux PC, then you should just need to set your linux box as the Gateway (on each of the client machines) and you should be sweet from there. So long as your machine then has net access, the proxy will find that and do the packet routing itself.
Im not sure how that .sh file will affect things...

So, what's happening at the moment?
Has your PC/the rest of them got Internet access?

...It looks like you might not be needing that DSE NIC, lol ;-)
nm, Im sure it can be put to good use or returned if not, but hold that thought as somebody might suggest otherwise.

Let us know where you're at and we'll carry on from there :-)

191157 2003-11-13 22:59:00 OK - i have taken the second NIC out of the linux box, and got it so it can now access the internet, the network is as follows:

Router: 192.168.1.2
PC1: 192.168.1.3
PC2: 192.168.1.4
Linux Box: 192.168.1.5

I then setup the gateways on my PC1 and PC2 to 192.168.1.5, but they cannot access the internet. I can ping everything from all boxes, so i'm thinking there might be something i have to run on the linux box to be able to make itself into a gateway? im not sure :p

191158 2003-11-13 23:32:00 is squid started? ilikelinux (1418)

191161 2003-11-14 02:34:00 allright ill start that and see what happens [linux] mb0o53 (4863)
191162 2003-11-14 03:41:00 If you want a sample config file thats working (or a howto on setting up Squid), check my ftp:
ftp://Chillingsilence[dot]no-ip[dot]com

Anonymous login, and dont even bother trying to upload.
The squid.conf file is in the ~/ folder, so you can take a look at that.
Or, if you havent got squid yet, you can download and compile the source with full instructions from in ~/Install/source/squid/

You should just be able to run (as root) the following command if its been setup correctly:
squid &


Hope this helps :-)
