I'm inventing some random numbers (they're not even valid IP
addresses) to explain the problem better
The following computers are connected via hub to the DSL modem:
201.123.321.12
201.123.321.13
201.123.321.14
201.123.321.15
201.123.321.16 (eth0) / 192.168.0.1 (eth1)
192.168.0.2
192.168.0.3
What can be done so that the 201.123.321.* computers can see the
192.168.0.* computers? Bear in mind that these computers are not
necessarily all Linux computers, but that we know
201.123.321.16/192.168.0.1 is a Linux computer.
