Steve Scrimpshire Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 http://mandrakeusers.org/index.php?showtopic=15646 A look at the sticky topic in this very forum would've shown you that. :P Also, having a title of a post that says something more than "newbe needs help, M,kay" would get you more help faster. I typically scan for topics I know something about and usually ignore vague post titles such as this one, because inside is usually a vague question about vague error messages. This time I was just bored and got curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gowator Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Yep no offense but Steve is right. I jusrt stumbled over this but the more specific your title the more likely the person answering it is knowledgeable in that area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draco Araurlis Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 I've just put a third NIC in my Linux box (MDK 10.1 Official) without any issues whatsoever - except that for some reason it decided to name the third NIC eth1 instead of eth2 as expected. I suspect this has something to do with eth0/1 using the same driver module. As for setting up the ICS - I followed Streeters manual setup the same as I did when I had 10.0 community installe but this time it didn't work. So I used the wizards - and this time they worked. Except for Samba - which did work in 10.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperDoyle Posted December 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 I went out and picked up another net card hope this will solve the problem. If not i'll just stick to the wondows computer being my main connection anyways thx for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
