Hi, I've got a system arrangement that goes something like this.
I have computer A(Mandrake 7) and computer B(Corel 1) connected to a hub.
Also connected to the hub is a cable modem, C. C is good friends with
A, but isn't really on speaking terms with B.
(The cable modem is set up for the MAC address in computer A)
Each computer has one ethernet card. I can get A talking to B if
I ifconfig eth0 to a private network IP (192.168.0.1) but then it won't
talk to the cable. B won't talk to A if A is set to the IP address that
the cable modem gives it(via DHCP).
Is it possible to get A & B talking to each other while A is on
the net? If so, I assume I can masquarade B through A. Or am I going to
have to get a second ethernet card for computer A?
Thanks,
- Dave
