Anyway, since you already have 8.2 installed, you can install snf RPMs (rebuilt on 8.2 from cooker) available at http://ranger.dnsalias.com/mandrake/mandrake8.2/snf8.2/ Of course, you can do the internet sharing thing without a firewall (if you are brave), just by running the right tools from Mandrake Control Center (or from the command line, as drakgw).
