Hi,

I'm giving Edubuntu a spin. I've run into a little roadblock. I can't seem 
to get Windows clients on the Ubuntu network to go through the Edubuntu 
server.

Here's my setup:

Windows network: 192.168.192.0 mask 255.255.252.0 gw 192.168.192.1

Edubuntu network: 192.168.100.0 mask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.100.254
Edubuntu server: eth 0 192.168.100.254 eth 1 192.168.192.18

For example from an Edubuntu workstation:

ping 192.168.192.1
ping yahoo.ca
... and so on all work.

>From a windows machine
ping 192.168.100.254 -- works
ping 192.168.192.18 -- works
ping 192.168.100.x to other machines works
ping 192.168.192.1 -- DOES NOT WORK

Any tips? Does Edubuntu have some kind of firewall that prevents 
non-Edubuntu clients from being routed?

Regards,
Tom Wolfe
