I wanna know how to network a PC installed with Windows and a PC installed with Ubuntu.
I have a ADSL modem which is not installable in Ubuntu. I wanna know if I have Internet connection to Windows PC can I access Internet through Ubuntu PC
the simplest way to achieve this is to use a tool like firestarter to enabled ip forwarding and masquerading on the ubuntu box. It's fairly simple to make lower level changes to achieve this, often only 3 lines or so, but firestarter would wrap it up nicely.
