suitable HOWTO or tutorial for this task.

May be because there is no need to provide a tutorial for such a simple thing.
Dealing for five years with Linux and networking and not knowing how to share an internet connection and setup a DHCP server is quite amazing.

You may ask simple things (that's the purpose of MLs), but dont claim your "five years experience" then.


I claimed my five years experience, because I have it, and I ask such simple questions, becaus I have them. I did already set up an ISDN router. And maybe my questions about a howto was not so exact:

I did not want to know which commands I have to press into the keyboard for making my computer a router! (Thats why I said I have experience). I wanted to know if there is something on the net which describes as an overview the important things for setting up a linux dsl-router. For example the hardware I could use, the software for managing the iptables-firewall, or some other tips and tricks.

Thank you for understanding

Kristian
