thanx...yeah ipnetrouter runs fine. i know how to map the ports for
that and it works very well. just gotta figure it out on cs 1.2

>>i'm on a g3 running cs 1.2 and i read some stuff about ip
>>maquerading and i'm wondering if someone can clue me in on
>>something. on macs i just use ipnetrouter and go from the dsl
>>modem to the uplink in the hub and then plug both computers into
>>the hub and use one computer as a router (software duh). on the
>>machine with the ip my isp gives me i can ping everything, but the
>>internal network. would someone please point me in the right
>>direction to configure cs 1.2 to be a software router using 1
>>ethernet card in the machine instead of 2? i.e. this is how my
>>network is set up...
