Im a long time linux user with barely any experience of windows at all (shocking i know). At home, my housemate has a adsl connection on a winxp machine that i would like to share to a variety of hosts (amiga, debian linux and some other version of windows which is possibly 98). On linux this is trivially easy to do using ip masquerading and is a set up i have used many times with much success. Does anyone know how to do this using winxp and even better if i can use the same great port forwarding that iptables provides so i can have an sshd daemon accessible from outside the network.
btw, the adsl connection is provided by bt, but for some reason windows has to
"dial" it and provide a username/password (it is a business connection) so i
dont think i can just drop a debian box in the way and use ipmasq from that.
Thanks
Tom
