I think Win98SE can do it too, but I wouldn't put an important service like this on a Win98 box. The Windows service is called Internet Connection Sharing, and in Linux you'd use iptables or ipchains to implement NAT and firewalling for the same effect. I'd recommend a standalone Linux box with a minimal installation for this. If you using a 2.4 kernel, search the web for info on implementing NAT with iptables. --Tony -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
