I've booted knoppix off the cd on my laptop. I'm networked to a win98 machine and can ping both ways. How do I share the win98 internet connection with the knoppix machine? Also how do u stop the pinging on knoppix, it just keeps going! :)

Assuming you've already set win98 up with ICS

On the knoppix client side:
ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.200 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
route add default gw 192.168.0.1 eth0
echo nameserver 192.168.0.1 >> /etc/resolv.conf

all three commands should be run as root

Thanx arkaine but it didn't work. I have Nat32 running on the Win98 machine for sharing the internet connection. Before I went into the knoppix menu then knoppix>network/internet>Network card configuration and click on use Dhcp and it worked once or twice.

It did work, I just realized that u were giving me those ip addresses as examples and that I fill in my own info, :)
