I *think* Win98 can actually do that (95 can't, IIRC), but I don't
know how. I'd ask why you'd want to do that instead of using the
Linux box to do the forwarding. :) (It was easy enough for me,
but someone in another thread had the obvious and annoying problem
of Win-only drivers. If that's the case, well... sorry, man. ;)
On a related note, according to the subject at least, is there a
way to do a minimal / fake DNS without installing BIND? ie: gets
a DNS request, if it doesn't know it passes it on to a real (ISP's)
DNS and caches the result. hm. I think I remember hearing the term
"caching DNS", is that what I'm thinking of?
