Re: Sharing BSNL Broad-Band between two pcs. (Windows XP & Suse 10.1 Linux)
Well yesterday it was REDHAT ENTERPRISE LINUX 4 [RHEL4].
Today its my darling SUSE
Sharing INTERNET [Bsnl Dataone Broadband] on Suse 10.1 Linux was bit Taxing.
Scenario is Server running Windows XP and Client running Suse 10.1 Linux
Server is connected to BROADBAND through USB as usual and I am suppose to make SUSE share the internet.
The prerequisite is that the two pcs are connected through RJ45 LAN CABLE.
I gave server running Windows XP a static IP as 192.168.0.1
Come back to SUSE (CLIENT), click YAST.
Under Network Devices you would find Network Card, Left click over it.
Select User Control with Network Manager and click NEXT
Click EDIT tab
Select Static IP
and Give the static IP as 192.168.0.2 and SUBNET MASK as 255.255.255.0
Now on the same window click HOST & NAME SERVER tab.
You need to give station name and domain name, I gave station2 and mshome respectively
Under NAMESERVER1 , enter 192.168.0.1, click Ok
Now click Routing Tab and insert 192.168.0.1 under Default Gateway
Now click Next.
Again click Next to finally accept the changes..............
You are through with the settings and all set to share the internet ...........
Open the browser and surf the internet................
To Be Continued...............

Hi Mates,
Now its turn of Windows SERVER 2003 to share the BSNL DATAONE BROADBAND internet over Local Area Network.......
Todays scenario is:
Server is running Windows XP...
The client running Windows Server 2003 is connected to server through lan (cross cable).....
On the Server running Windows XP open network connections.....right click the connection--->properties--->Advanced---->Under ICS---->Check the "Allow Network other network user.......Connection".
You can also check the other 2 option if you need though...
ok----> Apply.
You can got some error msg....but 1 or 2 restart it will be gone....
In the 2 nd comp u need to set TCP/IP settings for lan card
"Obtain IP adress automatically"
Both comp must be restarted after applying the settings.
In this case, you need to run the 1st comp (where the BB modem connected) to get Net acess for the 2 nd comp...........
