NIC question!
I have eth1 and eth2 NIC in my Ubuntu. Everything works fine. I have two static IP, on XP and Ubuntu. XP - 192.168.0.1, Ubuntu is 192.168.0.2 on eth1, eth2 is set on DHCP. I have Lan on and internet sharing. I share internet over XP. Can somebody explain to me some things: I assume that eth1 is my network card? What is eth0 then? What address should I have on eth0? Is DHCP right option on eth0? I'm little confused.

I guess it is Smilie can you please post the output of "/sbin/ifconfig" and shed some light on "internet sharing". Usually eth0 is the first NIC you have, and eth1 is the second one, but it could be virtual interface as well. Do you have these two NICs physically installed on your box ?
