hey guys
I don't know if this is the right place for my post subject
I want to transfer my Fedora OS into router such that the PC has two NICs on it, so i want to connect two computers to this PC and let the Fedora OS acts as a router and make routes between these two PCs.
any one have any idea/tut/steps ...
thanx!!

if you want this box be able to act like a wide area network simulator then you need some kind of application in it. FreeBSD has dummynet, i guess Fedora you have to download some 3rd party sw.
You will also need to enable IP Forwarding if your going to use the system as a router. in /etc/sysctl.conf, you would add the following lines
# Controls IP packet forwarding
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1Then load the changes with "sysctl -p"
