I have an Ethernet LAN and there is a LINUX machine with 4 other
Windows hosts connected to it.
The Windows hosts are 192.168.1.10 .11 .12 .13 and the LINUX NIC is
192.168.1.14
LINUX box dials out to ISP and gets 203.128.3.113 on its dialup
interface.
Can TCP/IP traffic on the local LAN be routed to the dialup interface
if the LINUX box is setup as router?
