| Make a registry tweak to IP forward |
| When you have two network interfaces on one computer, the requests from one interface don't pass |
| over to the other. For instance, if you have a network card and a modem that's connected to the |
| Internet, the requests from the network card will not be forwarded over the modem. |
| If you want to achieve this, you would normally have to install Routing and Remote Access Server |
| (RRAS). However, RRAS is quite difficult to configure. An easier method is to edit the registry. |
| (Reminder: Editing the registry can be risky, so be sure you have a verified backup before making |
| Log on as administrator and open Regedt32.exe. |
| Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters |
| If the IPEnableRouter doesn't exist, create it using REG_DWORD type and set it to 1. |
| Close the Regedit and reboot the machine. |
| This will enable TCP/IP forwarding for all network connections on this computer. If you later want |
| to disable it, just set that registry key to 0. |
