If you are interested in cheap cheap, get another NIC for one of your

computers, thus avoiding the cost of a HUB.
Thanks, that's exactly what I'm trying to do. The FC4 box has an
onboard network connection (going to the winXP box with a crossover
cable) and a NIC going to the modem. I got a little stuck on
configuring the FC4 box because I wanted it to be the middle man. But
it looks as if I'm going to have to do it with the winXP box because I
can't get the winXP box online through the Fedora box. Tomorrow I'll
put the spare NIC in the winXP box and try it as the middle man.
If anybody on-list has gotten this to work successfully, then PLEASE
share your setup with me! IPtables scripts a must!!! I don't want the
winXP box as the middle man because I don't want to turn it on all the
time...
