Ah, this is new information! If your intention is to share the internet connection on Computer A by turning Computer A into a router (by putting multiple NICs into it), then you are working much too hard. Yes, it's a viable strategy, but it's not panning out so well, is it?


Actually, I had not really thought about using the second computer for the internet. I suppose that would be cool. I was thinking more along the lines of just sharing files between both computers.

This unfortunately has reached the point of going over my head, and I think I am just going to pack away the whole idea until I do some more research about just what the hell I am doing., :-(
