- Configure the computer which is linked to both networks, ie. the local one
- and the one of your ISP's, as a gateway machine and make the rest of the
- computers route their traffic to the outside world through the gateway.
- In most cases all you need to do is to reconfigure your TCP/IP stacks.
- For instance, in AmiTCP's configuration file you'll just need to change
- GATEWAY=NO to GATEWAY=YES, configure the two (or more) networking devices
- and create routes for them. For more specific advice you'll need to be
- more specific yourself too.
