Reinstalled Mandrake 9.2
I'm trying to get my internet shared between my dual boot system (WinXP and Mandrake 9.2 Linux, this being the host) and a laptop running WinXP. When in Windows I can access the internet from both computers and see files from both computers, although I am not interested in sharing files, at this time in Linux. When in Linux I can access the internet from Linux but I can not from the laptop thru my Linux box as I believe it is called. I tried playing with the internet connection sharing in the Mandrake Control Center but I have no luck. A couple of times I lost internet access all together. I have it back but only on the host. Can someone give me some newbie help? Here are some config files I believe may be helpful.
[root@localhost network-scripts]# cat ifcfg-eth0
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
ONBOOT=yes
MII_NOT_SUPPORTED=no
NEEDHOSTNAME=yes
[root@localhost network-scripts]# cat ifcfg-eth1
DEVICE=eth1
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
NETMASK=255.255.255.0

[root@localhost network-scripts]# cat ifcfg-lo
DEVICE=lo

# If you're having problems with gated making 127.0.0.0/8 a martian,
# you can change this to something else (255.255.255.255, for example)

I hope these are what is needed. I need to know what to do in both Linux and what to change in WinXP as well. I appreciate any and all help. Thank you.
