Problem with firestarter and multiple addresses

My network setup looks as follows. Eth0 is my local lan adapter with address 192.168.0.1, and eth1 is connected to Internet with my public IP. My Gamecube has a hardcoded IP address of 192.168.1.32 and is connected to the local lan. I used to solve this by typing

sudo ifconfig eth0:0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0

Then I can successfully send data to it

nc 192.168.1.32 4000 < test.dol

I started using Firestarter and now this doesn't work anymore. It seems that Firestarter drops these packages on 192.168.1.x because it doesn't understand where they come from.

Relevant line from dmesg:

Unknown InputIN=eth0 OUT= MAC=00:20:18:8e:25:da:00:09:bf:02:3a:ae:08:00 SRC=192.168.1.32 DST=192.168.1.1 LEN=44 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=255 ID=0 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=4000 DPT=48624 WINDOW=2048 RES=0x00 ACK SYN URGP=0

How do I configure Firstarter to accept these packages?

Re: Problem with firestarter and multiple addresses

use 255.255.0.0 as netmask for eth0 and you will be able to connect to all 192.168 subnets , including the one your gamecube is on.

Re: Problem with firestarter and multiple addresses

No that won't work because the Gamecube still has netmask 255.255.255.0. At least I think that's why (I've tried it).

Re: Problem with firestarter and multiple addresses

Ok, change your eth0 subnet to the one the gamecube is on.

And if you can't do that for some reason, add a third network card to connect with the gamecube.

Re: Problem with firestarter and multiple addresses

In that case it sounds easier to find another firewall.

Re: Problem with firestarter and multiple addresses

stonebone, i expect another firewall won't solve the problem.

What you have been doing before looks as a dirty workaround.

To give you better advice, i would need to know more about the setup of your local lan.

from your posts it looks like you have a subnet 192.168.0.x and 192.168.1.x

Is there something on the 192.168.0.x subnet that you don't want in the same subnet as your gamecube ?
