Hello
I am in the process of setting up a network in my home. I have a
server running Redhat, and 2 clients running Win95. I would like to
know if there is a document or book somewhere which would guide me?
Or if not I am willing to create something since I am sure others
would be interested in understanding how to accomplish this task.
I know how to do some configuration of things like PPP, Sendmail,
fetchmail, and some Samba. What I am unsure of is what other
processes I might want to setup.
I want the system to use a Linux as the mail server and relay the mail
through my ISP. I would also like the Windows 95 boxes to use Linux
as a gateway to the internet. I don't have a full time connection,
just a modem which I have on a cron job for mail transfers. I start
PPP manually when I want to go to the internet. I think I want to do
IPChains but will need to learn how to configure this. I don't think
I need a firewall, since it is only connected to the Net when someone
is online.
Please point me to information, or a discussion list about this type
of setup.
Thank You
John Moore
