[TCLUG] Windows server: trying to assign static IP to linux box

Sat Jul 26 22:26:36 CDT 2003

I have internet connection sharing enabled.  The linux box is on the
internet.   That is working.  I will look into enabling advanced routing.
When I assign one of the 5 IP addresses to the linux box, it loses its
internet connection.

Thanks for the info.

uhh.. have you ever used the IntelDSLpro 2200?

it is a PCI modem that works only in windows.

You actually have to enable internet connection sharing in
windows and enable advanced routing to allow the PCs beind the w2k box to
use external IPs.
