Yes, this is easily possible. First, install and configure SuSEFirewall, which will set up the IP masquerading and forwarding for you. Second, set up dhcpd, so that you won't have to manually configure the laptop's networking. It might take a few hours of reading, but it's really only two RPMs, and a few configuration options. -- Rick Green "I have the heart of a little child, and the brain of a genius. ... and I keep them in a jar under my bed"
