The only way to make the Windows 95 boxes access the internet is through proxys or by using ip-masquerading. I'd suggest proxying first, when it works try the masquerading stuff > Oct 20 21:34:17 badpixel pppd[220]: Cannot determine ethernet address for > proxy ARP Remove the proxyarp option from your ppp options. > And this is my routeing table: > > Kernel IP routing table > Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use > Iface > 255.255.255.255 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 eth0 > asc1.gby.tele.d * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0 > localnet * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 > loopback * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 5 lo > default * 0.0.0.0 U 0 0 1 ppp0 As I said, this is ok, but your Windows 95 boxes won't see the internet. All internet services need to be proxied by the Linux box, DNS beeing one of these. Install bind with dpkg -i /path/to/bind/bind_4.9.6-1.deb and answer all questions with RETURN, except Forwarder Hosts where you put in the IP's of your ISP's nameserver. Bingo, nameserver set up. This is really simple. Now put 192.168.0.250 as the IP of your DNS server in the DHCP configuration. Now install squid and let the Windows 95 clients use 192.168.0.250 port 3128 use as proxy for http, secure http, ftp and gopher. Now they can surf the Internet. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
