Hi all,
Does anyone know, if it's possible to reroute all (i.e. HTTP / FTP / DNS / SMTP / POP3 / IMAP / etc) from an ADSL connected machine via another server, which is currently hosted with IS and has full internet access?
i.e. Can I setup another machine, on a different public IP than the dynamic ADSL IP as default gw? OR do I need todo something on that machine to work as a router for such a setup?
Both servers in this case is CentOS linux, but I'm sure that won't make a big difference?
In principal yes you can do this type of thing. You'll have to enable ipforwarding on the gateway machine as a minimum.
Can you provide more information about your networking setup - ip addresses and subnet masks, with an ascii drawing as well would help if you think it relevant :-), then we can provide detailed answers :-)
Thanks
Simon.
Sorry miss read your post - you can do what you're after, but this is a proxy in this case.... i.e. the remote box is acting as a proxy for your adsl connected server. If you're wanting to route all the traffic from your adsl connected box to the remote server, then I would look at using a VPN between the boxes.... you might be able to use squid on the remote server to be your proxy also.
