Re: ethernet routing
I've been reading up on home networking to set up a router using my linux box.
I'd simply like to make its DSL connection and firewall available to other
compures, like my laptop, and that's about it. I've found some HowTos which
were written for RH, but nothing really for Debian, and I'd like to do this
TDW. Does anyone know of a Debian HowTo for this?
Thanks,
Chris
