Fedora9 5-NIC's Serving I-net to WinXp
Im trying to use a CISCO WiFi-BRIDGE and Fedora9 to connect to an I-net connection down the road. Then use the Fedora box to route the connection to 4-Xp workstations using the remaining 4 NIC's in the box.

My paln is to eventually connect my home network/I-net to my work network 1.5miles down the road. (Clear line of sight)

At this time I can only see the I-net on the Fedora box and CAN-NOT see the wired Window's network at all.

I have played with several flavors of UNIX for years but have never had a lot of luck doing anything but the basics. So YES I would call myself a newbe to the OS.

Some of my attempts included a "Run from CD" Unix Server but I could never get that to do anything but boot and see my NIC's.

I expect this to be a longer answer than a Forum has to offer so if anyone can just point me in a direction I'll try to take it from there.

Thanks every one!
