I use Virtual PC to emulate ZipSlack, a mini-linux on my WinXP machine. I know that Virtual PC running a Win9x client can access the internet through the host machine, but what is the story with a Linux client? I cant access the internet, i cannot even access my modem! (to dial out from the client linux)

Thanks in advance,

In VPC 4.0, set COM1 to be a modem, and then click the "not modem" box. This works for RedHat, as far as it can "see" the modem. I haven't managed to get an ISP connection yet.
