We'll return to belacan.mail@usa.net and All's
discussion of peer metwork windows 95 with linux

 be> could i peer network linux with windows 95. Is it possible to use
 be> Wingate  as well to share an internet access?

Peer network?  Definitely.  Install Samba, compile in smbfs support and
install smbmount (Red Hat comes with all of these), and they'll network
happily.

As for Wingate, yes, it will work (I've tried it), but you might find
setting IP masquerading on the Linux box and using the modem on that
gives a better result. :-)

... Please hold, a tagline will be with you shortly.
