Dear Gurus,
I would like to share my DSL connection with another PC running WinXP. I am currently using Ubuntu (Debian?), I have 2 Ethernet cards installed on my system. The DSL Sharing works fine when I'm using my WinXP but when I switch to Linux, the other PC can't access the internet (I am on a dual boot system). Do I need any special software for this or do I just need to configure something for this to work?
You just need to confiugure it.
This is covered in the HOWTO's @ tldp.org
Primarily, you need to turn on forwarding (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward) and setup NATing (iptables -A FORWARD ... , iptables -A POSTROUTING --table nat ... )
