Hi!

I have a well suited linux box to the right and a small minix box to the
left. I want to connect from minix to linux via masquerading (installed
correctly on the linux host) and i wonder if this is possible. I gave the
minix box 192.168.1.2 as its IP and build a (large :-(=() net-kernel.
As I didn't found any documentation i did everything as I thought it was
ok - but it wasn't :-(.

Has anybody expirience with connecting a minix box via masquerading to 
a linux host so that it can get into the internet?

Here some datas:

 Linux: NE2000 (configured correctly - any win95 or os/2 PC attached
                to it can go through masquerading into the net.)

 Minix: NE1000, NECv30, 640KB RAM, 80MB SCSI HD on ST02 (via bios-HD),
        minix 2.0.0 installed.

Thanx...
