file, internet and printer sharing

hi i have two pcs with suse linux 9.3

one has two network cards in it, one connected to the internet.

the other card i want to connect directly via ethernet lead to the other pc.

all i want to do is set up a simple file sharing, printer and internet sharing.

i've played with all the network settings and messed around with different
things but i don't understand it at all and am getting knowhere. can
someone please guide me through. it's so easy to acheive in windows xp but
i don't want to use that! thanks.

It not a problem to set up the file and print sharing. basically you set up
the same way as in windows.. just goto control centre then to internet a
network and set it up through there..

for internet sharing it not to hard either. just use a proxy server.. found
on the suse cd's but I always like webwasher from seimen's. it acts as a
proxy server but also stripes out all the advertisement and stuff.. make
surfing just more enjoyable.. and it much more easier to set up then some
of the other proxy servers

here a link to it it free - for non commercial use

install it with the tar the rpm does not work in suse

then just put on your remote computer browser or what ever this as the
proxy (IP of your internet computer):9090 9090 is the port

now to configure webwasher http://-web.washer-/ in your url bar

the default user name and password is admin and webwasher

thanks for helping, i'm still not sure in control centre exactly what i
need to set up for file and print sharing and how to get it working though.
can anyone give me a step by step? thanks.
