Hi,

Mandrake Linux (8.2, 9.0) has its own feature of sharing an internet connection. It works via a wizard wich actually does the whole thing (unlike Windows XP, where you have to configure everything manually) and in a few minutes, you'll be able to surf along the waves of the internet with two computers.

P.S.: Don't forget to make sure you are using a CROSS-OVER UTP cable
