Share internet connection-Win98 Host, Knoppix Client

[rickenbacherus]

NIC on both machines is Realtek 8139,I tried connecting the Knoppix machine directly to the router, and it got internet access. I'll try pump and the other suggestions. I can't have the system connected to the router for long. I think the problem is with Windows 98, I booted my Knoppix system into Windows and it can't get a connection either.

I agree- it sounds like the win98 box. The command pump is only to bring the NIC up on the Knoppix box. I doubt that it will help in this situation. The rtl8139 is well supported under Linux.

Get ICS working and the Knoppix box will work.
