| 172214 | 2003-09-01 04:53:00 | Hi All, I am contemplating moving my server to linux from win2000 after a bad case of the Blaster worm . My server is a bare bones install of win2000 with internet connection sharing, basic networking and a firewall . Server hardware: -> P2 250 (or thereabouts) -> 32mb RAM -> 1GB HDD -> Internal Dynalink ADSL modem, model ALH110 -> Generic 10/100 network card Software: -> Remote admin software (so I don't have to be sitting at the box to work it) . -> Tiny personal firewall . Other info: -> I have Jetstart via Xtra, and I use another ISP for my email . I would like help with a few things, as know bugger all about linux as a server . What I would like to do is have the server share its internet connection to the other pc's on my network which run a hodgepodge of winME and winXP and access it via a 10/100 switch . In order to do that, I'm assuming I'll need to install linux, set up a firewall, set up networking, then set up the internet connection . I looked at . co . nz/howtos . html" target="_blank">nzdsl . co . nz and . ahs-png . org/lintech/linux_hints_tips/ADSL/" target="_blank">www . ahs-png . org which discuss installing my modem (and modems in general) but I don't really understand any of it . Can anyone give me a few pointers as to where to look or what to do? Regards, meee |
