I have a ASUS eee Pc (the linux version) that have access to wireless Internet.
Can I somehow connect a network cable to the eee pc to give Internet access to an other computer? (a windows xp computer). So it acts as a router or something like that?

As the eeePC has a standard ethernet port, you should be able to bridge the network. A quick google search gave me this manual, but I have not read all of it. It should be OK though.
Note that this will mean a considerable amount of work, including possibly recompiling the kernel. It's not difficult, but don't imagine something like "plug and play".

What exactly do you mean, you "can't run ifconfig in [your] terminal"? Do you mean, you don't know how to or does it give you an error?

I hope that works for you, if you choose to use it. :-)

Gives me an error, something like this:
>ifconfig
bash: ifconfig: not found
and the same with ifconfig eth0, ifconfig ath0, ifconfig wlan0
and i have net-tools with ifconfig
but i can't use it in the shell
edit: ops, needed to be in a root shell lol

Hehe, reminds me of an old saying: "What to do when having Problems: In Windows, reboot. In Linux, be root." ^^

My code starts a TCP/IP socket listener and waits for incoming connections.
This works fine on my system and my test system but I have a customer who

Today something weird happened:
I bought myself a new wireless router for home, got it set up, and
everything was great. Browsing, email, even Shareaza p2p.
Until I tried to use the ASP.NET 2 menus on one of my apps (hosted
remotely). The menu options just wouldn't work, the browser just sitting
there waiting for a response for ever.
Not all menu options though, only the ones requiring postback. Hyperlink

Hi,
I have two ethernet interfaces on my system, with IPs assigned to the
interfaces from different subnets (e.g. eth1 - 10.10.10.10 and eth2 -

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
