    two network cards and only one with external access

    Hi!

    I have two network cards in my computer, one of them is used to connect the PC to the internet and the other one is used to conect this PC with other two PCs that don't have external access.

    I need to connect one of this non-external PCs to the internet, and I heard that it's posible to do it via the external-PC. But I don't have any idea about the way to do that !!!!!
    Can anybody help me? Thanks a lot.

    Marta.

    Take a look at this link. Though this article is based on Debian it will give you a good deal of info about what the project entails.

    Hi rong,
    Thank you.
    I'm just going to have a look at it (I hope I'm able to understand something!!)

    If you decide that's more of a 'project' than you want to tackle at this time, the easiest solution is to buy yourself a router. For under a hundred bucks (US) you'll get a router/switch/firewall and off you go!
