I'm making a little more progress. I can ping two ways
from each machine and my windows box is being assigned
an IP address. The problem is I can't reach the
internet with the windows box.
Is my firewall preventing this?
your_win_box:
nslookup www.google.com ping -t www.google.com / ip_adress tracert www.google.com / ip_adress
dns-server? your_lin_box / your_dsl_router / isp_dns_server
standard-gateway? your_lin-box
proxy-server? eg. squid your.linux.box.ip:3128
your_lin_router:
# route -n
# vi /etc/sysconfig/network GATEWAY=your.dsl.router.ip GATEWAYDEV=eth0
#tcpdump -ieth0 #tcpdump -ieth1 host your_windows-box
what do you get with
# cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward 0
enables forwarding immediately # echo "1" >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
enabled for endurance: # grep forward /etc/sysctl.conf # Controls IP packet forwarding net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1
enables the new config # sysctl -p
you can install squid-proxy-server : 3128 caching-nameserver : 53
# vi /etc/services
