[CLUG] Networking

[Bligh Swift]

I am attempting to set up my RH 6.0 machine as a server and connect my
Windows 98 machine to it. I'd like to be able to use the printer which is
connected to my Windows machine from linux. I'd also like to use the linux
machine to connect to the internet via the modem and use this connection
from Windows. And I'd like to be able to share files between both machines.

I've bought a Network Starter Kit with two PCI Ethernet cards and a hub and
I'm ready to go but would it be advisable to re-install RH 6.0 and select
the server option (I think I originally installed using the workstation
option) ?

Also, can someone point me in the direction of some documentation which
would be helpful ? - I'm new to linux and to networking.

Many thanks,

Bligh Swift
