\_ SMTP quoth Rob Wultsch on 4/4/2003 01:18 as having spake thusly:
\_
\_ My home computer I have previously set for laptop to use as a gateway to
\_ the internet runs xp. My laptop now run debian, but will not allow my to
\_ surf the net through a crossover cable to the home computer. I can ping
\_ to the home computer from the laptop, but nothing beyond that. To add
\_ more fun the laptop needs to be able to work on the lan that is at ASU
\_ (using dhcp).
\_
\_ My question is what do I need to change on the laptop in order to be
\_ able to surf the web. Help?

Experiment with this for a bit, then get back to us:
