I have a working two computer network with file, print, and internet sharing in
Windows. I would like to have the same thing in Linux, but I know almost nothing about
networking in Linux. Both computers have 2 NIC cards. My internal IP is
192.168.244.132 and the other computer has an IP of
I have installed linux several times. This procedure always works.
1. Edit /etc/smb.conf and change the following
MAKE SURE that the line "workgroup = MYGROUP' is CHANGED to be
"workgroup = (what ever you have in windows under workgroup in
settings-control panel-network-identification"
2.
Ok. Now what drivers do I use for my ethernet card? The autoprobe in the installation
said it was a tulip card. I don't know what that is, but my card is an NDC 10/100 PCI
card. After I went into Linux it seemed fine until every 10 seconds it kept popping up
messages in the console saying
Your card use's the tulip driver.
Go into netcfg and enter your machines IP address and the DNS.
