My cable connections goes into a LinkSys modem first, and from there it connects through ethernet to whichever computer I want it on. I figured I may be able to just connect the linux box to it, and have the second NIC handle the internal network, yes? I just wasn't sure if there were any particular caveats I should be aware of before I do this. Another choice would be to get a LinkSys router and link up the modem to the oruter, and then a hub to that router. Ah the possibilities. -- H | "Life is the art of drawing without an eraser." - John Gardner +-------------------------------------------------------------------- Ashley M.
