The network is ethernet, is it possible to connect the new computer using the parallel ports of the computers to the server of the LAN so that this new computer is able to have access to the internet and the rest of stuff? What do I need to configure in the kernel? Is there any how-to out there that answers this question? Best regards, -- Paulo J.
