ok I am reinstalling 7.2 .... cant find that firewall config anywhere but by setting up tgf's "How to" was great and I got showeq to work. The only thing i kind of did not understand was


eth1 (hooked to hub):
Activate at boot
Assign IP of 192.168.1.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: leave blank (took me an hour to figure out why I couldn't route, when
this auto filled in and I missed it)

im not sure if this is the linux comp or from the winxp/98/ comp since it says eth1..... or is this the second nic from the linux comp? or does the linux comp only need 1 nic?

oh well going to format anyways be back in a bit.

and Thanks Yendor for all the help today Ive posted on hackersquest but they arnt much help.
