Hi

I am trying to put a linux gateway server (clearos) in between my home clients and hardware gateway. reasons qos, bandwidth monitoring etc. My vdsl router functionality is crap in regards to bandwidth. I could put the dsl router in bridge mode and have clearos dial its own connection but for now I do not want to do that.

internet ----- vsdsl dialup (x.x.x.1) ------
clearos (x.x.x.2 / x.x.x3) ------ clients

Network work topo..

192.168.5.1 ( pace router vdsl gateway )
192.168.5.2 and 192.168.5.3 ( clearos setup as gateway with 2 nics )

5.2 is the LAN card eth1
5.3 is a WAN static ip which points to 5.1 eth0

routes
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.5.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1
192.168.5.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
link-local * 255.255.0.0 U 1002 0 0 eth0
link-local * 255.255.0.0 U 1003 0 0 eth1
default 192.168.5.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0


Now I am trying to point my subnet clients to clearos using 5.2 as the gateway, however it fails. I am assuming it has something to do with the routes.

IP-forwarding is on and firewall is turned off


how can I get this to work
thanks
