I'll second that. ICS requires a box with two ethernet cards, which in itself can be tricky to configure whether in Linux or Windows.
Routers are the key to heaven these days no matter what OS you're running.

As the saying goes, "there's one in every crowd, and we have ours." On that note, I must say that I had a far easier time getting SuSE to talk to WindowsXP than I did SuSE to SuSE where ICS is concerned. I still have to get it working SuSE to SuSE. XP required using the wizard to set that up, and SuSE required putting the correct gateway in place w/IP Routing. End of story, as far as my boxes were concerned. -- ...CH SuSE Is All U Need Linux user# 313696 Linux box# 199365
You sound like just the person who could tell me what I'm doing wrong if you would be so kind! My SuSe 9.0 box comes up looking for an IP address and never gets one (confirmed by ifconfig). When booted as a Win98 machine it works fine. Could you tell me just what and where needs to be entered in Yast to wake this machine up? Thanks, Chris
