Sorry for the delay responding. I ordered a 2.4GHz CPU for that machine, replacing a 1GHz, and was hoping it would run it. It doesn't like the new CPU. I think the mobo is to old or something. No beep, no boot, no nothing. :-( Anyway . . . . . I ran those commands and it now works fine. I can ssh and everything. When I run /etc/init.d/iptables save, where does it save those too? I want to save the rules I had, just in case. I thought it was in /var somewhere but I can't find it. I need to learn iptables I guess. It looks like those commands open everything up. I also don't know if it will connect the second rig to the net through my main box. Something I'll have to test out later. Thanks for the help.
