Sharing connection (mandrake)
 

Hey guys/gals, I run a cable connection via ethernet (eth0) and have a wireless card installed (wlan0) I'd like it if my mate could use my internet connection using XP & an identical wireless NIC. Thing is he can't, XP pics up name changes I make to the network so I know they two box's are talking but he can't use my connection... I see DrakGw is there to help me set up ICS but for some reason it says I don't have an ethernet card even though Mandrake is using it now to connect to the net :scratch: so how can I do this via bash, what commands are related to sharing my net connection?
