Dnsmasq and dhcpclient problem

English Network/Internet
1

I had Dnsmasq server running for a while now and only thing I changed since on the DNS/DHCP server is running fwbuilder script at startup in init. The fwbuilder script is still the same script I have been using since setting up Dnsmasq. The client terminal is having trouble reaching the outside world.

Default-Gateway: 192.168.0.1

What I can do on the client terminal:
ping 192.168.0.1 Works
host google.com Works
ping 74.125.45.100 Fail

From the server terminal:
ping 192.168.0.3 Works
ssh 192.168.0.3 Works


comp2:~ # route

Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface

link-local      *               255.255.0.0     U     0      0        0 eth0
loopback        *               255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo
default         netsrv.comp1.lo 0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0
comp2:~ #

In dnsmasq.conf I had set:
dhcp-option=3,192.168.0.1

I don’t know why dhcp-client is setting default router to
default netsrv.comp1.lo 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0

Anyone who has insight to this issue of why it’s doing this please, I would appreciate the info/help… Thank You…

What do you get with:


/sbin/route -n

?

Thanks P.V.
The problem was on Server Terminal. ipv4_foward was at 0. I use fwbuilder Firewall script during system boot up, it sets up iptables (Nat,firewall, and ipv4_foward). I don’t know why ipv4_foward was still at 0 and i’m investigation the issue. Again ‘route -n’ was what I was specifically looking for, thanks for that tip =)
