yes you can... My suggestion to you, is to use google to find the home page of gShield
download the latest compressed version.. untar it into /etc and call the directory firewall. and read the file gshield.conf its all in english.. its all easy and they give you the possible answers so you can just choose one.. Then just run it... /etc/firewall/gShield.rc Thats it, you firewall and connection sharing using static IP. (or dhcp if that is your choise) is done... It does a ton of other stuff too.. but you don't need to know about that if you are not interested... rgds Frank -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Anne Wilson Sent: Thursday, 13 February 2003 5:57 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [newbie] connection sharing using static ip On Thursday 13 Feb 2003 9:09 am, fifner the dragon wrote: > Before I start blocking the 2000 I want to start sharing the connection > using static ip.
