another internet sharing post

[kostas.r]

sorry about starting another internet sharing post but i've tried everything in attempts to configure internet connection sharing between my linux slackware 10 host and my windows xp client.

- there are 2 ethernet cards in the host, one card goes to the dsl modem, the other goes to my windows client

currently, i've tried using the following method:

this is

ifconfig

:

my hosts.deny:

ALL: ALL

my hosts.allow:

ALL: 192.168.0.2


Also, for setting up my windows client, all i've done is exactly what the above url says (i.e. i dont have microsoft internet connection sharing installed) and i am using 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2 for the DNS server addresses.

Thanks for taking the time to read the post,
hopefully i can get this resolved soon.

There is a networking fourm here you may want to look at, also check out the How To area also.
