[coLinux-users] Problems using colinux with ICS, with Zone Alarm

[Aviv O. <avi...@gm...>]

I can't seem to connect to the internet, using ICS. I'm using a
router, and changed the IP to 192.168.1.1.

The firewall seems to be what's stopping it, and I'm not sure what do
about that (and I'm too much of a newbie to safely rely on coLinux as
my firewall).

I get this alert from zone alarm when I ping www.google.com - "The
firewall has blocked Internet access to
news.google.com(64.233.161.99)(ICMP Echo Request ('Ping') from your
computer."

I have set coLinux's IP as trusted, though the wintap adapter I have
kept at internet.

If you have any suggestions on how to fix this that a newbie would
understand, I'd really appreciate it. I have spent hours searching
everything I can think of.




Some more info, maybe it will help:
