Hello,
I have 2 PCs connected through cross over cable one of them has lan internet DSL connection through another lan ethernet card.
On Windows XP i configured the second PC to work on internet through Internet Connection Sharing on the first PC.
I want to know if this will work with Fedora 7 and how to configure this.
The computer which will allow ICS is installed with windows the other one is installed with fedora and connect to the first through cross over cable. how can i configure fedora to work through this.
Fedora should automatically discover the internet connection and use it without requiring any input from you. Have you actually run into any problems, or are you simply asking if this will work later on?

ICS enables a mini-DHCP server -- you can't configure it manually -- so the only thing you have to do is not use a static IP.
