I am trying to setup Proxy on my RedHat 7.1 server. Linux server has 2 NiC
eth0 - 63.143.X.X
eth1 - 192.168.1.1
I configured DHCP too...

From client side , it's getting DHCP address , but the problem is am unable to ping any outside computers other than IP Configured on Linux box.....

Need help how do i setup Routing structure if i want my Client computers to reach external address....

Thankyou in advance...
 
Hi Sheel
if 63.143.x.x is your external network then you need
gatway for that netwrok added as default gatway.

prompt#> route add default gw gatwayip
netstat -rn (should shows like this)
0.0.0.0 gatwayip 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 eth0

Or fire up netcfg
click on routing tab assign default route. type eth0 on device.
