Comment: I have a new install of mandrake 7.0 on a computer and want to network it with another computer that uses a satellite modem to access the internet. How do I do this? Thanks in advance,

Reply: (edit)You would do better to hook the linux
computer to the internet (put 2 NICs in it)
then access the linux machine from the
windows machine, not the way that you
want, but backwards.

Reply: (edit)Try both. Linux inclues IPmasqurading and ME includes ICS. See if your Linux machine will be able to access your salalite provider before trying to run it as the gateway.
