Hey everyone, this is my first post. I'm a freebsd Newbie who really
doesn't know much at all yet, so please excuse my probably lame
question.

At any rate, I need to network two computers- my BSD box, and one
running Mandrake Linux  9.2 (for now). I also need to share my
internet connection.  Actually the internet connection sharing is more
important. What steps do I need to take? All the pages I've brought up
seem to assume some prior knowledge of both networking and/or Unix (I
have absoultely none), and I apparently don't even know enough to
recognise the information in the FreeBSD handbook. I installed FreeBSD
to learn, but I'm totally lost in this matter.

If anyone can help me, or tell me to RTFM (as long as you point out
the manual) I'd appreciate it. Once again, Sorry for the dumb
question. Thanks.

-R. Scott Kennan
