Re: [coLinux-users] Problems with TAP and/or WinPCap driver

[Michelangelo <mic...@gm...>]

Post your config for more help.

A simple working config:
Install colinux 0.6.4 with TAP driver.
Windows XP side: Activate internet connection sharing on i.e. your LAN
connection towards the TAP connection (make sure the connection you're
sharing does not belong already to a 192.168.0.x network).
Start colinux with something like
c:\colinux\colinux-daemon kernel=vmlinux initrd=initrd.gz root=/dev/cobd/0
mem=256 eth0=tuntap cobd0=.gentoo4gb_notebook
COLINUX side: check that the colinux install is configured to obtain a DHCP
lease - check the colinux ip, should be in 192.168.0.1-254 range. Or, set
networking with a static IP in the abovementioned range.
hope this helps
