I'm guessing that a NIC in each box and a > concentrator would do it, or would I have to go to 3 cards? I have not done this personally, but I have Mediaone, and I do monotor the various M1X newsgroups. There are quite a few people who are using various network configurations on Mediaone. First, you can use either the Linux or Windows95 system as the host. You would need to have a NIC for the cable modem as well as a separate NIC for your internal network. There is also several FAQs maintained on using a LAN with a cable modem. If I dont see those URLs posted by the time I get home tonight, I'll post them. Gerald A.
