Warning:

I had severe problems with the WfW 3.11 netwoek setup program failing 
after copying the required files. This appeared to be caused by having 
Trumpet Winsock on the path. You may need to change your path for the 
duration of the installation.

Just for interest:

My home system is running Windows NT 3.51 and I have a dial-up link to 
Demon. It also has an Ethernet link to my father's system running 
Windows 95. He had a dial-up link to TCP (a Southampton-based Internet 
service provider). By using TCP he gets a free off-peak connection 
because both ends are on Videotron cable lines. However TCP's link to 
the outside word is currently extremely slow.

I would like to configure our systems so that we can make use of each 
other's dial-up Internet connection. Is this possible? If so, how? 

If we are both on-line at the same time could other people's IP packets 
end up being routed from TCP to my father's system, across our LAN and 
out through Demon (and vice versa)? (Bypassing the slow link from TCP.)

(My main interest is the intellectual challenge; what I am proposing is 
probably against the letter of Demon's and TCP's contracts. I just want 
to find out more about TCP/IP.)
