-   I am brand new to Linux and I am interested in sharing my adsl connection from my Linux box to my other Win 98 box. I'm using an Arescom NETDSL 800. Any information that I could be given or pointed to would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

-   Click 'K/Configuration/Other/Mandrake Control Center', enter your root password,
then click 'Network and Internet' and then 'Connection Sharing'. Pretty straight
forward Wizard after that.

Plug your second network card into a hub, or use a cross-over cable to connect
your Win 98 box, and you're all set.

-   Fast support and very helpful experts to answer my questions. I think I've finally got the reasons I need to convert to Linux for good.
