Hallo, I've an ethernet netwerk of an IBook and a G3 connected through an ethernet-hub. To the Ibook an USB/ADSL-modem is connected. I've been told the G3 can connect to the internet over the network and the IBook. How should I do so? The IBoo is running OS9.2, the G3 OS8.6. Thanks for helping me out! Willy

Forget software, because it's a waste of a computer (you have to have it on all the time).
Get a router - it's cheaper than software, faster, and uses less electricity.
