<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>G'day All,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This is my first post after much
reading.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>First up I'm new to Linux, VERY new.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've been fiddling around trying to get one of the
LRP distro's set up to link 2 houses with a network in each house.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm not sure if I want to use routing or
bridging.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've looked at the Eigerstein, Materhorn (seems
old?) and Dashestein.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have a P133 machine here that has a NE2000
ethernet card on board (300H and IRQ 10) and an Orinoco Silver</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>card in a ISA to PCMCIA adapter card. My friend has
an identical unit (Unisys minature box ex ebay) and we wish to link
our</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>2 networks together via a wireless
link.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Problem is I don't seem to be able to get the
drivers loaded for the wireless card and or get packets from 1 betwork to the
other.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Umm, I'd appreciate if someone could perhaps point
me in a direction to further my education,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'd love a step by step, but I'm prepared to fiddle
a little if I can get on the right track.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm sure someone is/has done something
similar.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks again</FONT></DIV>
