Connecting Linux to Net via XP

**scotlandtb** · January 18th, 2003, 05:46 PM

Ok, I have now got 2 Linux distros to try (see previous post)

http://www.techimo.com/forum/t48520.html

But as I am burning my CDs for them I am wondering if anyone has connected their linux machines to the net through a winxp system (I use ICS and would be nice if Linux will work through it)

Any advice or instructions on how to do it would be mooooost helpful (I have a 18 port hub, no router and no plans to buy one anytime soon)

PLEEEEEASE tell me it can be so

Steve
