need to network RH 5.1 with Windows 98

Post by Jim Snyd » Sun, 02 Aug 1998 04:00:00



Hi

I am building a new computer for LINUX and would like to use the modem
and DUN from a Windows 98 computer.

Is this a difficult setup? Any suggestions for network cards?

The Windows 98 machine is a AMD MMX 200 mhz with PCI video and the
LINUX machine will be a CYRIX 233 MMX with AGP video and sound both on
the motherboard.

Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions!

If you would like to share the Windows modem, try Wingate or a similar
program (check tucows for more programs)

1. How to setup RH 5.1 under Windows 98?

You can do it a couple of ways. You can use a floppy to boot to linux, or
you can use something like LILO or somthing like norton system commander
that will prompt you when you boot, what os to boot to, but I don't think
LILO will work with Windows 98. I could be wrong, but I tried to use it on
my windows 95 system, and it didn't work.
       You can find instructions on how to make a boot disk in
/usr/src/linux/README. To learn about LILO type "man lilo"
