I have three computers, two running linux and one running windows xp. My sysem has linux, yet i have a winmodem, and don't feel like loading the drivers. I do have a nic however in all three machines, and am wondering. If I set my windows xp machine to chare it's internet connection, how do I set up my linux machine to get online through my windows machine?

For the linux machines, just set them up to use 192.168.0.x address (unless you have DHCP somewhere), and use the IP address of the windows machine as the gateway.
