Subject: [newbie] Connection Sharing - best hardware
Running Mdk8.2 and want to set up connection sharing so I can use adsl
from laptop via my desktop.
Laptop is running windows98.
Wondering what hardware would be best to get for the linux desktop.
eg: would http://web6.scan.co.uk/Products/Info.asp?WPID=1791 be suitable?
Any other advice?

Of all God's creatures there is only one that cannot be made the slave of
the lash. That one is the cat. If man could be crossed with a cat it
would improve man, but it would deteriorate the cat.

Hi, the nic card looks good, actually I have a full spread of NICs on my LAN from the $9.95 cheapo to a best of breed 3com, so linux will use just about any decent card. The thing that you will need to get the network to function is a hub or switch or a crossover cable to connect the two computers. Just thought I would mention these since you didn't say what you had.HTH
