Hi Doug,
I have a slightly different topology to you I have the cable modem connected
to the Linux box via eth0 (set to be DHCP) and the rest of the network
hanging off eth1 (set to be a static IP). I browse from the other machines
via Squid running on the Linux Box. I have not had any issues, I plugged it
in, configured it via yast and hey presto it works great. I can even browse
from within Windows 2000 running under VMWare on the Linux box (when I have
to use Quicken).
The above is using SuSE 7.0, I am still waiting for 7.1 to arrive :-(

Subject: [SLE] cable modem
I am still not able to get this darn cable modem to work with DHCP. I have
made both cards (I have 2 NICS) work and when I do an "ifconfig -a" I can
see both of them. On my dmesg, I see that it says that for "eth0: no IPv6
routers present" and "eth1: no IPv6 routers present". I am not sure what
this is.
For the next question. I am running this on a home Intranet with a Win98
machine. Initially, I had set up the network so that all machines had a
static IP address. I used 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2 for my two linux cards
(which I could ping both from the windows machine) and 10.0.0.3 for my
windows NIC. I was able to map network drive to my linux box for my web
work and use the web server that way. Currently, I have this cable modem
connected to the windows machine (so that I can use it) and with IP's set to
DHCP, I cannot communicate with my linux box now. Does anyone have any idea
how I can set this up so that it can be as it used to be? I went to a site
on linux.com (http://www.linux.com/howto/mini/DHCP/index.html) but found in
short order that this tutorial was not going to help me. It is for Red Hat
6.2 and some of the directories between RH and Suse are different. I am
fairly new to this and not a networking genius either. If someone could
help this poor pathetic life form, I would appreciate it.
Thanks,
Doug
