As there is no text based setup->networking-> network

Fedora Core 1 I tried the redhat-config-network.
It does let me define several network interfaces and routes. Only little
probem is that if to reboot the box the routes and interfaces are defined,
but routing is disabled (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward content is 0).
I find it strange that there is no "enable routing" option in
redhat-config-network as it was in this previous text
based setup->networking->.
i had never seen that this was possible.
i have done it always via /etc/rc.local or via my firewall-script
Routing will start working if to "echo 1 >
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward".
other possibilities are
# grep ip_forw /etc/sysctl.conf
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 0
change it to "1"
# sysctl -p
# redhat-config-proc
network / ip / ip[2] / ip_forwarding
save and activate your configuration
Is this a bug or does I get it all wrong?
