Yes, that is the way I'm using it :)
Since you have been one of the few who have shown an interest in this I
haven't put anything together to put somewhere on arachne.cz, anyway right
now (read: today) isn't a good day for me to start with it - but I'll mail
about it in a few days at most (otherwise I've forgot so please send and
complain to me if I haven't sent one out soon).
Basically the only problem you have is finding the drivers for your network
card (do you have the floppy that came with the card?), then you choose an
IP for you and set the nameserver to that of your ISP and the gateway and
netmask accordig to your LAN (most of the time 255.255.255.0 and the IP for
your prozy is correct - but this can be checked at the proxy). Anyway, I'll
get back with a more complete description later.
