Hi
I'm not quite sure what the issue is here. The discussion appears to be
currently centered around getting the other computer(s) on your home
network to use the internet. I haven't used ISDN (way way too expensive
here) but I'm assuming you get that bit working for your main computer and
you have the other one connected to it via ethernet.
I use Wingate (http://www.wingate.com/) to act as the proxy to share the
one IP address (and 198.168.0.x internally as Rich mentioned). It also does
all the proxies and port redirections. It can even, if I desire, allow one
of the "internal" computers to be seen by the "outside". That way I can run
a webcam from my Mac out via the NT.
Anyway... it is free if you only need to connect one extra computer (at a
time) to the internet as you seem to do. I now have a five user license for
my 6 computer network. For a year, I just had an NT box with a Mac
connected to it via a simple (crossed over) ethernet cable (no hub) using
wingate. Worked just fine!
thanks
Bruce
