Hi everybody,
I have a problem, I'm configuring a Firewall on a Yellow Dog Linux 2.0 =
box and my network have these caracteristics:

- My External Firewall NIC IP: 148.202.41.1
- External Gateway IP: 148.202.41.254
- My Internal Firewall NIC IP: 90.0.0.1
- My Internal Net: 90.0.0.0

At this point I'm able to see the external Net (ex. 148.202.41.1 to =
148.202.41.253) but I can't see (ping) any IP in another subnet (ex. =
148.202.1.29). I think that probably the firewall is not able to find =
the gateway to go to another networks. Probably I'm not configuring =
correctly my Firewall NICs. This is the configuration information for my =
Firewall NIC's:

External
- IP: 148.202.41.1
- DNS: 148.202.1.29 and 148.202.3.5
- Gateway: 148.202.41.254

Internal
- IP: 90.0.0.1
- DNS: The Linux system automatically set the same that for the External =
NIC
- Gateway: Linux system automatically set the same that for the External =
NIC

Internal Clients
- IP: 90.0.0.2 to 90.0.0.254
- DNS: 90.0.0.2 (also try with 148.202.1.29)
- Gateway: 90.0.0.1

Hope somebody can help me.
Please let me know if you need more information

Thanks in advance for your help.

Saludos!!!
