Re: using dial-up connection over lan



Hi.

You need to install wingate or something like this on the WinNT.
That will enable the WinNT to act as a router.
Since Wingate cost money, you can use the Linux box as router.
You will have to transfer the modem to it and to recompile the kernel to
support ip masquerading.
(Plus support for PPP and some more modules - read the ip masquerading
HOWTO)

However i do not know if Linux supports cable modems yet.
