i would like to connect my linux box and windoze2k box to the web. my win box is connected using dhcp (sprint microwave broadband) my ISP (earthlink) can't help.. they dont support non win or mac os's (but they use unix for their servers... weird). i have a linksys router and all is working with just windows. how would i go about connecting both at the same time. i am new to linux so be patient with me.
thanks for your help and time
 
You would need to multi-home one of them if you want to do it properly.

One acts as a gateway and has routing enabled. The other is the "client". Has a default gateway of the other machine.
 
i know what needs to be done, but i don't know how to do it.
