yes Aram it is called internet connection sharing..
but its kinda stupid since u share the connection by doing routing, NATing and running DHCP server while nothing is CONFIGURABLE.. as far as i know
ya3ni for example u cant change the subnet of ur internal network it has to be 192.168.0.0 so i doubt u can configure the XP box to do packet forwarding..
however Faisal there is an other way to do so by using an independent program such as fpipe
fpipe does forward packets depending on ports but of course this isnt efficient so i suggest u should get a router or use the ubuntu as a gateway for all other machines as yazan suggested :)

another thing, can windows xp do packet forwarding?
i'm sure windows 2003 does... actually i'm not so sure
about that either, don't you need isa for this sort of
work?
any windows guys here who would know this?
