Hi,
As the info below will show, I know nothing at all about networking
and, until last week, never needed to.
I have a simple router which worked fine when connecting two PCs
running XPpro. Now I'm trying to use it to connect two workstations,
each running SuSE 10.0 (one 32- and one 64-bit), but there is no
connection to the internet or to any isp. (Yes, I know I could do
this with a crossover cable, but I shall intermittently have network
connection soon.)
I tried assigning one machine a local address of 10.0.0.1, making it
the dhcp server, but no joy. There seems to be no way to use Yast to
create the connection that I want. Any suggestions?
