Yesterday, I put together a, basic, ancient machine to run the Ez-NOS server on, however, I've already used all ports in our 4-port DSL-504g Router.

I then attempted to "Daisy chain" 2 PC's (one being the futre webserver), in the hope that the DOS server would be able to access the internet through the other machine. However, I'm uncertain what I should enter for the IP-address in the NOS config file.

So, does anyone know if this is possible, and how to achieve it?
Or, would I be able to connect the DOS machine to the router (I can configure IP's for that just fine - I'm just uncertain about the second LAN), and then link the other PC to the server?

Sorry for writing such a long message, and thank you in advance.

I presume you have a static IP address from your ISP, if that is the case it is easier to setup the router to allow connection from the web to EZNOS server.


I presume you have setup:

MODEM
ROUTER
PC
EZNOS

...you would need to forward the web requests from router to pc then route from pc to EZNOS server, not easy.

The EZNOS IP address should be the same range as other PC's on the LAN. The subnet mask should be the same for all PCs on the LAN ie

PC1 192.168.0.1
PC2 192.168.0.5
PC3 192.168.0.7
SUBNET 255.255.255.000
