First to is it possable to get it to communicate with a win2k pro machiene. And second can I get it to share a ICS between the OS's. This is what I have:

Win2k box = LinkSys 10/100 card, 96mb ram, 300mhz
PicoBSD box = LinkSys 10/100 card, 32mb ram, Pentium 60mhz
Hub = NetGear 10mbs 4-port hub


I am rather new to UNIX + Linux and thought I'd try it out. If anyone can shead any light on this question it would be accepted most gratefully.

If you want Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) I'd use the BSD Box and run IPF/IPNAT (add another NIC). It works great and will run circles around the 2000 box, as well as leave the win machines recources available for other stuff like games or photoshop or whatever.
