ok
I have a gateway that uses a wireless pcmcia card with a pci host adapter along with an ethernet card that connects to a 5 port 10/100 base switch.
Right now it has windows 2k with ics enabled. It runs Orinoco's Client Manager software and the Net Work name is Packers.
I can modprobe the hardware using the howto from this page and get it to work, i am pretty sure anyway.
My question was how does ics in linux work and to what rc script or configuration file would the Net Work name be added so that i can logon to the access point of my ISP?
Does this make sense to anyone? |
