The way I did it here once I got Samba working and the two computers talking
to each other (in win95). Was to set up Apache as a proxy server on the
Suse Box. Then all the internet software on the win95 box, I set up to use
my Suse Box as a proxy server (using port 80 everywhere except for security,
but netscape filled in the correct ports automatically). Then after playing
with ppp as a dial-on-demand for a little bit, I learned about diald, and
that is what I use now to enable accessing the internet from either box.
I've since "updated" my win95 box to a win98 box, and after a couple of
hangups due to "encrypt or not", got it to see the suse box on the lan, but
it works just like the win95 box did:-)
