Subject: Cox and E-smith
Tom I'm not using E-Smith but I am running mulitple boxes on cox with
only one cox ip address. if E-Smith is using a kernal that has ipchains
/ iptables on it it shouldn't be too hard just set up ipforwarding and
ipmasq on the firewall script. Hmmm you may want to check out these
howTos

They should get you up in running (for me it was longer to read the
HowTos than it was to set up and config everything)

Knowing nothing of how to set up a Cox system (I was surprised to find out that they are being charged $6.95 a month to have a second computer on line.) Anyone on the list know how I need to configure the e-smith for Cox? It has version 5.0 on it.
