Subject: [LINUX_Newbies] hello


I have suse Linux 9.0 pro on one hard disk and windows on another and
currently use grub. I have a cable modem NIC setup on my Linux disc and
works fine for RR even thought RR offers no support. I cannot get
windows to recognize the sbmodem even with the provided software cd. I
think it's because my ISP identifies my two discs as two computers.I can
use the "the on the road" dial up modem to get RR on windows. My NIC is
listed in windows as functioning with proper drivers. I was wondering if
I could make my linux disc into a proxy server for my windows disc on
the same machine.Is there a hardware router change I could make.I'm on
an Asus mb with plenty of space.It seems possible since the signal from
the ISP is the same and I doubt RR would detect it. The ISP has always
assumed I had a windows connection since they offer no support for
Linux. I use Mozilla suite in windows and Mozilla 1.7 with KDE in
Linux.Is the issue that my NIC will only operate in Linux? That would be
odd since I installed it in windows first with software, and just picked
it out in Yast with Linux, plugged in the sbmodem and was online, e-mail
and all from three different ISP including an AOL imap account from
another machine.I thin RR is picking out a static IP though they say
they don't. Is it possible that the NIC IP is different in windows than
in Linux on the same machine.They can't be using the MAC id of the modem
as I have never put it in. I am a new user of Linux and not quite used
to the terminology having been drunk on windows for so long. Is there
even an IP table? Suggestions appreciated.I have to think this through
but I was wondering if anyone else had this cable modem issue with RR
running Linux with a windows partition or seperate disc.The DHCP works
fine for the dial up modem and the network settings are right in
windows.I've sent to RR but got no reply.I'd like to come up with a
Linux solution.Seems so far to be more stable.I expect my stuff to work
right.I pay enough for it all.
