Hi all, I've run into a couple of problems the *fm's I can find don't solve. How in 'ell do you UN configure the Internet connection sharing????
#1: While trying to set up Internet connection sharing I fsck'd my local network e.g. NO NFS connection.. OK referring to a suggestion sent on this subject several weeks ago, I tried to then set up static IP addressing, Nope, no worky.. I don't get NFS OR connection sharing. Worse yet, now I can't even ping the nameserver of my IP, Dial Up Connection (216.190.159.2), so no Internet or email. I can ping my other computer(using local term window), the one I set as the dhcp server, leaving the IP address static on it. I'm using it to send this mail so it seems to be working OK as far as Internet connectivity is concerned. #2 I though to my self, OK, if need be I'll set up SAMBA and use KOMBA2 to browse with. Well, Komba sees the share but as soon as it opens the file browser it closes it right back down. This doesn't happen browsing a Corel Linux system I have set up as a file server, Komba works OK. So as it stands right now, I don't have either Internet connection sharing or ANY kind of network that I can use. My goal: 1: Intenert connection sharing over a 5 computer network(IP range from 192.168.0.1 up, originally set up static on 192.168.10.x up). 2: NFS networking between all of the 5 computers (all running MDK 8.1 except the Corel1.2 file server) The system I want as a gateway machine is an Athalon 1.2Ghz, 512Mb RAM and a good 56K/bps modem. NIC is LinkSys 10/100 PCI, no problem with it. I have a 3Com 10/100 12 port hub and a LinkSys switch being used as a hub to extend the distance of my short cables. Overall length is under 50 feet. So, in total I need help figuring out how undo whatever the "Wizard" did OR get it configured right so I will have a usable network again. Thanks, Ken Thompson
