hi experts (i mean good people out there.. hehe), i'm using mandrake 10 community. i just love it. I wonder how can i setup the mandrake to be a gateway for the internet. I'm using LAN internet (DHCP), and i have 2 network cards on my mandrake. I want to make the other network card runs DHCP server to allow my second computer (WinXP) to use internet. I presume, i need a crosslink cable between my mandrake and XP. I configured the internet sharing, but it just didnt working. It seems like the mandrake machine is not sending any packets to the XP machine. Can someone out there help me. thank you in advance.

The variety of Linux distributions creates myriad issues relating to configuration and operations when computers are networked, not the least of which is the use of various network management applications, some of which are included with specific distributions, while others are standalone applications.
