It sounds like only the one network card is configured. I'm to assume you
want to access the internet with your linux box, and have the linux box
share the internet connection with your windows box?
The cable modem should be connected to the interface that is designated
eth0--this is probably the interface that is currently working.
You need to enter linuxconf (su to root, type linuxconf in terminal),
enter Networking, client tasks, Basic Host Configuration and select the
interface eth1. You want to putt your interface information here.
Use a dummy IP address (192.168.x.x, or 10.x.x.x), make the gateway the same
IP address.and the subnet mask 255.255.255.0. Select the appropriate driver
for your network card., click activate at boot. click accept, quit, and
activate changes.
in the terminal type /sbin/ifup eth1 and let me know what happens.
Also, please give a little information about your setup--and maybe try to
squeeze a period or a comma in your paragraphs :-).
