Hi,

I am trying to make a router using a FC4. I have 2 NICs in the machine. 
Install FC4 using minimium. Eth0 is set to DHCP, connected to an ethernet 
modem and ETH1 has IP 192.168.1.1, netmask 255.255.255.0 connected to a 
switch. Installation was a success and rebooted the box. Clients machines 
are unable to ping 192.168.1.1. But when i unplug the modem and reboot, 
clients are ablt to ping 192.168.1.1. I realised if the box booted up both 
ETH0 and ETH1, clients are able to ping 192.168.1.1. But if i ifdown ETH0 
and ifup ETH0, clients are able to get reply from 192.168.1.1.

Can someone tell me what should I do?

Best regards
