You "understood" he has a fully configured network and a server with at least two Ethernet Cards, able to do the forwarding/NAT. If any of those assumptions is wrong, he may end up with a misconfigured network and NO internet access. how cool. so, I personally prefer asking, as this does not hurt or harm in any way. If you do not see it that way - my bad. EOD.

Dear Paul, the first answer stile "if you don´t really tell us WHAT you need, we cannot provide you any kind of solution" was and is perfectly acceptable. If you would like discussing that matter on a personal level (yes, I often consider myself an imbecile and nevertheless managed to be an RHCE and work as a systems manager), please do so with just the specific persons involved - and not the whole mailing list. bye moi Paul Shaffer schrieb: <blockquote cite="mid:792058.40523.qm@web50605.mail.re2.yahoo.com" type="cite">Yes, thank you.

Right, without knowing if he's asking how to plug two computers into a switch, use Fedora as a firewall, run multiple virtual machines network connected, or any of the other things you could mean by "share internet connection in fedora." Instead of asking for clarification so I could actually help with his problem I should have pulled an answer out of my ass so I look smart? Well I guess I should have, you sure did. On TV game shows someone gives an answer and then the contestant has to make up a matching question. On a mailing list the question comes first and then you have to understand it and provide the matching answer. > > v/r > > Paul > > */Bill Davidsen <DAVIDSEN@TMR.COM>/* wrote: > > azeez khan wrote: > > hi > > can u plz explain me how to share internet connection in fedora os > > > Share it with what? > > -- > Bill Davidsen > "We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from > the machinations of the wicked." - from Slashdot > > -- > fedora-list mailing list > <a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:fedora-list@redhat.com">fedora-list@redhat.com</a> > To unsubscribe: <a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list">https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list</a> > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Be a better pen pal.
