Hi,
Now **I** am confused and concerned. I have 2 lan cards on my pc. One of them connects to an internal office network and the other to the Cable ISP thing, very similar to what kshitijv uses. I use wingate to connect other PCs in the office to internet. I am reinstalling Linux next week. The ISP guys told me that they can support (Earlier, I was using dialup modem so this problem did not come up). I plan to continue using the same lan card for internet even in Linux. Does this mean I can not use internet from both the OS ?
Is there any workround ?

AAggggh....
Here i know exactly wat is the problem... u having two network cards on ur machine ?? if yes then u got to either stick to only one OS permanently, coz u need
to
tell ur ISP to reset your MAC Address Information and then go in Linux and login there, and then never ever u can login frm win2k ;) (coz i dont know y is that so ... but it is like that ...)
and linc is the only one which keeps your connection on n on n on ... the 24online linux client given doesnt give constant connection. so take that extra pain n find out the login code :)
should u need any thing, let me know.

Hi Mitul, Thanks for prompt reply. I am aware of "linc". I have tried it also and able to connect to my
ISP.
But, my problem is, my ISP has configured the server software so that I
can login from only one OS.
E.g. if I login from WIN2000 for first time, I will have to use WIN2k
for accessing the Net. I will not be able to login from Linux or even WIN98 afterwards. It says "You are not allowed to login from this machine".
I actually wonder how the server software is identifying that I am
trying to login from different OS. The hardware (i.e. Machine) is the same. It is just the case of multibooting system.
I have checked that the port used by the client software on WIN98 and
Win2k is different. Is it the cause of problem? If yes, how can I force the client to use same port across all OSs that I have?
