What kind of help?
What do you want to do?
What have you tried so far?
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

but then it would not let me on internet any where I can pig my other pc

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.
