[olug] home network

[Craig Wolf]

I have done it and it is very easy but if the dual boot machine is your
main machine, as soon as your machine locks up (sometimes more than once
daily, you lose your access from everything internal until that machine
comes up.  Really sucks when working a problem over a vpn from the
"other" machine in the internal network.

You could use your linux box as your gateway for the windows box to
the
internet, however you wouldn't be able to connect your single boot
windows box to the internet if you booted the dual boot machine into
windows unless you use the connection sharing that comes with win98. 
Never used it, dont know if its any good.
