Salutations...
Yes I am a newbie...
Here is what i am trying to do:
P5 90mhz 32 ram 800MB hd
services running
smbd
apache
nmbd
natd <-- focus of attention --)
-----rc.conf page-------
linux_enable="YES" #enable the Linux binaries
saver="logo" #enable the screne saver
gateway_enable="YES" #enable the gateway for other puters
firewall_enable="YES" #enable the firewall rc.firewall
moused_port="/dev/psm0" #enable the mouse ports
moused_enable="YES" #enable the mouse itself
hostname="serenity" #enable serenity's hostname
network_interfaces="rl0 ed0 ed1"#enable the network lan cards
ifconfig_ed0="inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" #lan card bnc
connecting win98 and winNT puters
ifconfig_ed1="inet 192.168.3.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" #lan card in waitinf
for another puter
ifconfig_rl0="inet 192.168.2.1 netmask 255.255.255.0" #lancard connected
to cable modem
dhclient rl0 #enable the connection to the cable modem
natd -f /etc/natd.conf #allow network access to internet
-----natc.conf-----
interface rl0
dynamic yes
-----problem-------
i have a friend running named and routed services...
I think it will slow down my already slow machiene...
Do i need to run theses services ???
or can i have the other puters use the cable modem dial up puter do it for
me ???
i was told i don't have to run these services, but how do i tell the win95
and NT machienes where to go when they do a name lookup ???
-----question #1-----
how will the winnt machiene and the win 98 machiene get the new ip
addresses...
will the natd demon assign the addresses automatically...
The winNT machiene uses 192.168.1.4
and the 95 machiene uses 192.168.1.3
the gateway is 192.168.1.1
and the lancard attached to the modem is 192.168.2.1
how will they get new numbers ???
do i have to assign them???
-----question #2-----
has anyone done this sorta think, and documented it on the web...
it would sure help...
i can just see all my friends getting droped from icq cause my puter is so
slow ???
i only get one ip from the cable modem dial up...
ps this may look fimiliar, but my old email address got nuked... now its
serenity@tcainternet.com or neosphere@bigfoot.com thanks...
