moved here from "Linux software" by davorin
Reason: "linux software" is for EDA related stuff only!
a) buy a DSL router (easy!)
b) configure WinXP to forward packets from a local PC( or LAN) to internet (also easy)
c) configure Linux to forward packets from a local PC( or LAN) to internet (medium hard)
in case b) Linux will have its own LAN gateway assuming ethernet for example the WinXP machine and case c) is the inverse of roles
How tough are you in this era? If you are tough go to make Linux to forward packets and if beginer buy a DSL router which I am sure it has its own tutorial instructions how to do it.
PC LINUX ---(ethernet)----->PC WINDOWS XP with USB ADSL MODEM ->
internet
I wouldn't change this connections, and i don't want to buy anything.
PC WINDOWS has ICS enabled.
