Did starting a new thread help? Hope so. But it looks confusing to me.
OK. My machine is dual booted win98/Fedora 1. Networking has worked fine with windows, but my 14 year old son sorted that out. We are on a hub so I don't need 2 ethernet cards. My big problem is I don't know how to configure the networking files and samba. Also LIsa won't start up for me which I think is another init config file problem (eg me being blonde again!). Please tell me what kind of other information you need to know. I like to use the KDE desk top and have somewhere picked up a utility called smb4k which looks like a gui samba configuration interface and network neighbourhood thingy in one. (But the documentation is primitive to say the least). I feel like I probably need to start from scratch.

Internet sharig and file sharing are two completely separate issues.
1) I am on a hub and I have two separate cards (one for the Internet and one for home/office): setting is much easier and safer, and traffic is completely separate.Adding a card is cheap and easy.
You set the first card to Internet and try it: if it works you set the network parameters on second card.
But you have to tell the machine that is a router (see file /etc/systcl.con)
kernel.sysrq=0 net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter=1 kernel.core_uses_pid=1
At this point you must tell the machine that must do some NAT (Network address translation) by setting appropriate iptables file in /etc/sysconfig
This is mine...with eth0 card to the internal and ppp0 as Internet connection

Samba configuration in a separate message after confirmation of success!!!
In any case I suggest to Install Webmin (that you can download at Www.webmin.com) --
