Hi all,

I am a new Redhat user. I have installed Redhat7.1 and Win2K as dual boot. My computer has installed 2 NICs(3com905), but I could not brow my computer in LAN brow. When I clicked on LAN then returned error message"Could not connect to host localhost".
I have tried to ping from another computer running win2K and vice versa then OK.
Its mean NICs working normally, right? anyway my purpose is use Redhat computer to share Internet connection between other computers in our office.

Have anyone can help me to fix this? or give me some suggestion?

Lan browsing has to be configured.


kcontrol network lan browsing


then run this

lisa -K as root

First you must configure the network cards and then enable masquerading.Read NETWORK HOWTO and IP-Masquerading HOWTO.it is a good idea to read IP-firewalling HOWTO because u may need to setup
also a firewall.I have read that HOWTO's and i have solved a similar problem.If you configure corect the network cards you can ping any computer from your's network and viceversa and from the linux box you can access internet.Good LUCK!
