Re: SLUg Archive, FAQ, HOW-TO's, etc, was Re: [SLUG] Linux + Cable Internet ?

[Mehmet Yousouf <mehmety@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
I'm booked for an Optus@Home install on 14th of August.... we have 2
linux boxes and 2 win boxes plus an occaisional notebook networked sharing
a phone line through a p100 linux box. If and when I get it all working on
cable, I'll try and document the trials and tribulations if it will help
(I think I'm newbie enough to have a few problems). I suspect this sort of
network will be getting to be quite common for families with childeren 
in high school/tertiary education. 

Regards, Mehmet
