    Internet sharing?

    I've read the sticky theard about Internet Sharing but I don't understand.

    I'm using Knoppix3.6, witch have Internet access, through my 1st network card.
    Then I have a WinXP machine connected to my 2nd network card.

    How do I make it so the XP machine can surf through Knoppix3.6??
    I am new to Linux so explain in extreme detail plz

    btw I cant even ping the XP machine (with all firewalls disabled)

    The easiest way... okay? You not using router, right?

    If running knoppix from cd:
    1) Run network card configuration, don't choose dhcp. Set your ip ..etc.
    2) Set your internet connection and connect.
    3) Run knoppix terminal server...just hit <enter> on every question asked.

    If running knoppix from HDD:
    1) You can use above procedure.
    2) You can apt-get (install) guidedog or firestarter.

    a) Guidedog:
    i) Tick on enable routing, enable IP masquerade,FTP,IRC.
    ii) If your other pc has an IP, set an IP range in No-masquerade Addresses section. Ex: 192.168.0.0/24 if the pc ip is 192.168.0.x
    iii) Hit apply, and your done.

    b) Firestarter ***choose this if you want to share connection with firewall in one package.
    i) You the wizard to set your connection sharing and firewall.

    If you talk german, this brief introduction might help:
    http://www.linuxeinsteiger.info/anle...etz/netz11.php
    It tells you how to setup linux as router.

    (Perhaps guidedog and/ or firestarter do nearly the same thing behind the scene.)

    I guess you need at least
    Code:
    route add default gw LINUX_IP
    , translated to Win-syntax, called from the win-machine.

    I used the tutorial in a slightly different way - two linux-machines, one network-card each, a switch, and the dsl-stuff, and it works perfectly.
