Re: Networking Red Hat 7.0 & WinXP using Webmin?

Hi Jonathen
    What you will need to do is setup ip forwarding and masquerade the
internal machines in your network unless you have multiple accounts or your
isp allows multiple connections(doubt it).  These can be compiled into the
kernel or loaded as modules.  I apologize because I am a few versions
behind.  I have the same setup as you(minus the xp) and it's great.  Check
out http://linuxnewbie.org/nhf/intel/network/eznetshare.html and look for
the NHF on sharing internet connections.  You will also need to setup
ipchains ir NAT.  Sorry the typing is so bad my left middle finger is broken
and it is tough.
