Hi,
Could anyone please give me a hint how to configure a win98 box behind
a gentoo router? Just replaced Dad's broken WinXP box with a brandnew computer where I installed win98 for him. Using my Gentoo box as
router it worked perfectly with Dad's old computer. Now I can ping
between gentoo and win98, I can manage Dad's files from my Gentoo box
(samba) can print from Gentoo to his printer, but his win98 can't get
an internet connection. What did I miss? Must be something on the
win98 side, since I did not change anything on my Gentoo box. TIA!

I use Win98 behind a hardwared router; should be the same for using a gentoo router.
You have the correct choices. All you need to do is right click on Network Neighborhood, select properties, scroll down until you select the TCP/IP -> your ethernet card and select properties:
IP address check Obtain and IP address automatically Gateway, nothing Wins check use DHCP DNS check disable
This works for me. Good luck.
