I have a PC running Progeny Debian Linux, and another machine running Windows. The Debian box connects to the Internet using a Surfboard 4100 cable modem. I want to connect my Windows machine to the same cable modem. I already have a hub so ideally I would like the cable modem and the two computers plugged into the hub. I don't want two network cards in my Linux box - I am not over bothered about security and am perfectly appy to rely on my firewall. I have already connected the Linux machine and cable modem to the hub and, of course, it works fine. What do I need to do to add the second, Windows machine? I can find documentation detailing how I might configure a RedHat box, but the files I would need to change do not match up with files on my Debian system. Can anyone help me here? Many thanks indeed.
