Re: NAT under Gentoo

`emerge dhcp dnsmasq`
`rc-update add dnsmasq default`
`nano /etc/conf.d/dhcp`
`cd /etc/dhcp/`
`cp dhcpd.conf.sample dhcpd.conf`
`nano dhcpd.conf`
`rc-update add dhcp default`
`shutdown -r now`
as for the iptables blocking of port 139 you wont have to
... incoming traffic hits the Gentoo NAT box and well,
unless you're running samba on the machine (which you
really shouldnt) port 139 will get REJECTED ;)

Subject: [gentoo-newbies] NAT under Gentoo


Hi everyone.

I am trying to set up a NAT with my linux box (that uses cablemodem with
dhcp). The idea is to setup a dhcp server for the clients machines (that
might be running windows or Linux) to give the clients transparent Internet
access (those clientes will only browse, check mail and use ICQ/MSN
messenger). Some basic firewall will be needed mostly to block port 139 of
windows shared resources.

I cant find a dhcp server and it looks like the docs at iptables.org are,
somehow, a little advanced for me or it is more complicated to do than in
Windows (is this obvious?).

Some pointers about the subject will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
Jaime.
