What kind of help?
What do you want to do?

How are you sharing the internet between the XP PCs?

I have my cable modem plug up to my linux pc. Then going out to a Linksys
5port workgroup hub then the other two pc run of that. I share the internet
that way when I run xp on all three it works fine but I don't Know that much
about linux shareing when I try to active both nec cards in linux the one
going to the hub does not active. Try to use I don't remeber what they call
it for shure the setting above blind to mac address if you know what that is
I have to look right now I am on xp. That way it will active both nec cards
but then it would not let me on internet any where I can pig my other pc
that way but no internet like I said I need All The Help I Can Get. :haha:

Unless anyone else has a better suggestion, I recommend these instructions:

Let us know how you get on.

It would be, of course, easier if you used the Windows machine to share the connection, if you are new to Linux.
