Hi, Looking for a few pointers as how to best set up a small office network. Basically can install debian on the machines but don't really know how to join them in the simplest way (4 machines). I want the server to be the gateway to the internet. I've tried linux conf at setting up gateways etc but no luck. I've also tried 'routed' (is this the right thing?). Can't be bother to fiddle with 'route add' every time I boot - there must be a standard way in debian.
Also how can i set up the server to dial in to the internet by ppp and allow the other machines to access the internet through it. I guess i need some pointers as to the pertinent conf files and commands and whether there are any good config applications out there. Any key-words / suggestions very welcome. Thanks Tom
