Hi there, Could anyone tell me if this is indeed possible and if so point me in the right direction:
I have 2 pc's at home connected together via ethernet. The one with the modem I will call 'woody' as its running testing. the other is 'spud' an old 486dx50 running potato. I have sorted internet access from spud by using squid. np. but trying to run dselect to update or download packages from spud does not work. Of course I do not have a fixed IP address to the internet as it's dynamically assigned by my ISP each time Woody connects. So, is it possible or not, or should I try another approach? the ips I have assigned to each are: woody 192.168.1.2 spud 192.168.1.1 I can telnet spud from woody (takes ages?) but a telnet request to woody is refused. I have a resolv.conf file on woody with the 2 nameservers I use. Thanks in advance. Wayne.
