SuSE 9.1 to Windows 2003 Server Internet Connection

Cipherfx · 01-07-2005, 01:55 AM

This is my Second Post/Thread

I'm trying to configure SuSE 9.1 to connect to Windows 2003 Server for internet connection. But find it confusing?

The server [Windows 2003 Server] has satellite internet connection [GILAT System with Star Modem] connected thru USB PCI and NIC connected thru switch for its distribution and file sharing.

The SuSE has only 1 NIC directed connected to a switch.

Windows 2003 is using Winproxy 5.1 for its internet sharing. The sever is using a static IP on its NIC but the Internet is DHCP.

Anybody with a solution, kindly give a hand here. Thanks

Hi Cipherfx,
please specify ur problem. Any prob with firewall of W2k3? Can u connect the server?...
Configure SuSE to use WIN as proxy/gateway and allow on WIN to do this for this client.

I don't think so I have problem with firewall coz I haven't been able to connect to the server.

Practically don't know how to do it in Yast.

So if possible send me instruction base on Yast not on console or text mode, since I'm use to windows GUI, hope you could be patience guys with newbies like me who once been in Windows.

This is actually a cafe, wherein I'm trying to shift most workstation to Linux to introduce people to Linux.

Another is stability: who wants to manahe a cafe wherein customer experience OS hang and blue screen.

Anyway thanks, in advance and hope you could reply to this thread soon.
