Hi all,
I am trying to setup my ubuntu server with 4 windows clients. The server has 2 network cards- eth0 which has a static address of 192.168.0.1 and eth1 which is connected to the router and is configured with dhcp in /etc/network/interfaces.
My problem is what do i use as a gateway address? as eth1 is connected to the router and has its ip address assigned by the router (normally 192.168.1.3) i cannot get the windows clients to see the server.
If I leave the XP machines to get their ip by dhcp they can browse the web etc, but If i change a machine to say:
ip: 192.168.0.2 with a gateway of 192.168.0.1 (the eth0 card on the server machine) then the XP machine cannot see the internet.
I am sure I am doing something silly here.
Thanks for any help.
