Re: [coLinux-devel] A different networking config...

[<ch...@to...>]

This may be possible. I do not think that it is possible to have more than
1 virtual nic on coLinux yet but It probably does not matter because you
are not limited by the speed of the hardware. So an alias on the 1 nic is
probably good.
ifconfig eth0 realPublicIpAddress netmask .....
ifconfig eth0:1 192.168.0.1
enable everything to foreward for now

setup 2 TAP interfaces on windows one to do an native bridge to eth0 and
the other to eth0:1 and only give windows a 192.168.0.? address and setup
192.168.0.1 as the windows gateway.

You may want to try to create an image of smoothwall or another router
type distro to make things easy you want to be able to toggle easily
between pass everything and block everything while trying to get this
configured

check out some of the howto's on tldp.org for some networking info

just making some guesses here I have not tried any of this
