Hello all, I am currently using the latest Cygwin DLL release version (1.3.22-1) on a Windows 2000 computer. I am quite new to the Cygwin world.
This computer is connected to the "external" world through its network card. I have also a laptop without any network card, but a free serial port. I would like to allow the laptop to reach this "external" world through the Windows 2000 computer. The laptop is running Linux. I have a null-modem cable to connect the two computers. What I would like to implement : a TCP-IP connection between the laptop and the desktop computers. I have searched through google and the mailing-list archives, but did not found anything. Someone gave the advice to try pptpd, but version 1.1.3 does not compile under Cygwin. I have also tried ppp 2.4.1, but configure complains about Windows and says that Windows/Cygwin does not correspond to any available compilation option. Any other idea? I can try any other network possibility : SLIP for example, but I do not know where to look at for Cygwin. I thank you in advance for any advice/pointer/help, Sylvain. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
