Shared Internet

Thanks Auswipe,

My next query would be what is more advantageous use/setup FreeBSD as my internet/proxy server to allow my Windows XP Prof to connect to the internet or vice-versa and is this already supported in SAMBA or do I need another set of bins/programs to do this.

nb: I have 2 machines and I only have one modem, I have them on the network with 4 users (at home, apartment shared) and would want to give them access to the internet using one account and plan to surf all at the same time, I guess FreeBSD is powerpacked enough to do this.

NDISGEN(8)						    BSD System Manager's Manual 						NDISGEN(8)

NAME
ndisgen -- generate a FreeBSD driver module from a Windows(R) NDIS driver distribution SYNOPSIS
ndisgen [/path/to/INF /path/to/SYS] DESCRIPTION
The ndisgen script uses the ndiscvt(8) utility and other tools to generate a FreeBSD loadable driver module and a static ELF object module from a Windows(R) NDIS driver, for use with the ndis(4) compatibility module. The ndisgen script is interactive and contains its own help section. Unless the paths to both files are supplied on the command line, the script will prompt the user for the .INF and .SYS files needed to generate the FreeBSD driver module. The script will also prompt for any firmware or other external files needed. SEE ALSO
ld(1), objcopy(1), ndis(4), kldload(8), ndiscvt(8) HISTORY
The ndisgen utility first appeared in FreeBSD 6.0. AUTHORS
The ndisgen utility was written by Bill Paul <wpaul@windriver.com>. BSD
