I've a dialup connection using an external modem. I'd like to allow
other computers to use this connection thru ethernet (builtin over a
ppc9500) , I've followed carrefully the advice given onto the yellowdog
web site. However this don't work here.
Then i wonder if my builtin isn't missconfigured because when i try to
ping another machine over this very small (2 computers) network i get
"host unreachable". I'm sure the harware connection works because i'm
able to connect both computers under AppleTalk either under macos or
linux (ysing netatlk in this case).
here is my config :
