if you google for unix commands you will find tons of tutorials on all the commands you will ever need. You could also just buy mac osx server sense thats a unix platform and much nicer to configure then the command line stuff.

Did you change the NIC? Or is this a new computer?\nCan you ping the modem?\nIf you change out the NIC, they are only $10-15, you may get an easy answer.\nIt could also be the driver for the NIC.\nChanged cable modem?? Why, was the old one bad?\nAre the settings in the modem correct?

From the PC that you want to connect to, go to the website http://www.whatismyip.org.  This will show you the Internet IP address for your network segment.  Then on the PC, get the local area network IP address.  I'm not sure how to do this on a Linux box - on a Windows box you'd go to a command prompt and run ipconfig.\n\nOnce you have these two addresses you'll need to access the router and do port forwarding to the PCs network IP address.  The ports that you forward depend on what remote control you are using.  The RDP protocol, which is used for Terminal Servives and Windows remote desktop, is port 3389 and VNC or Vitrual Network Connection is typically port 5500.  You need to point the appropriate port to the local area network address of the PC.\n\nThe next step is installing server side software to allow remote connections to the PC.  VNC is downloadable, free, and pretty easy to use.  Install the server piece on the PC that you are connecting to and start it.\n\nFinally, install the client piece of the same software on the PC you are connecting from.  When you try to establish the connection, you'll need to connect to the Internet IP address, the one you got from whatismyip.

you can just use the command prompt (cmd) in windows and type ipconfig.

what you want to do is to use NAT.  what this does is make all traffic from your lan look like it's coming from the same IP, each connection using a different port. example: 1 server connected to the net w/ 1 pc in the lan:\n\npc1 wants www.3atm3.com's webpage and sends a request from 1.1.1.1 to the NAT box 1.1.1.2, which sends the info to the net saying "1.1.1.2:1234 looking for www.3atm3.com", when the page comes back it will be for port 1234, and the NAT box forwards the info to 1.1.1.1\n\nI'm not giving you a set-by-step to set up a NAT, but the idea is that:\n1) lan pc's use the NAT server as their gateway...done\n2) NAT box is configured to route traffic and knows it is doing NAT for the LAN\n\n...use a linux box for the NAT server- it's easier

There are a number of different DHCP clients that run on Linux.  Use the command "ps ax" to try to determine what processes are running that might have something to do with your ethernet interface.\n\nDHCPCD is a popular one.  Look to /etc/dhcpc for any files that might be there.\n\nPUMP is also a frequent program in use by some versions of RedHat Linux.  Run "pump -i eth0 --status" assuming your ethernet interface is eth0\n\nDHCLIENT -- run "locate dhclient.leases" and look into that file if you see that process running.

To manually open a port, follow these steps:\n1.Click Start, and then click My Network Places.\n2.Under Network Tasks, click View Network Connections. (Or, right-click My Network Places on the desktop, and then click Properties.)\n3.Right-click the connection that you use for the Internet, and then click Properties.\n4.Click the Advanced tab, and then click Settings.\n\nNote If the Settings button is unavailable, ICF is not enabled on this connection, and you do not have to open any ports (because they are all already open).\n5.Click Add to open a new port.\n6.In the Description box, type a friendly name. For example, type File Sharing : Port 445.\n7.In the Name or IP address of the computer hosting this service on your network box, type 127.0.0.1.\n\nNote You can specify the IP address of an internal computer. But you typically will use 127.0.0.1.\n8.In the External port and Internal port boxes, type the port number. Generally, this number is the same.\n9.Click either TCP or UDP, and then click OK.\n10.Repeat steps 1 through 9 for each port that you want to open.

If you have access to the server, the server has configuration software that allows you to allow/block access to the ports. I can't tell you exactly how to configure your server - every server is different.\n\nIf you don't have access to the server, then all you can do is try every port, and see which ones work. For software to help with this, try\nhttp://scan.sygatetech.com/prequickscan.html\n\nWhen using software like this, keep in mind that the person who configured the server may also have software running on the server to detect this type of scanning. When you run the scan, you should assume that your network administrator will know that you are running it.

Then take the other end and input that into any port of the router other than WAN/or uplink, (Note if there is anything in the uplink port the port next to it will not work) now restart your computer.\n\n5.      While the computer is restarting locate and hold the reset button located on the front or back of the router (You may need a paper clip to do this) for 30 seconds.

I think your terminology needs refined a bit, but I do understand what you are saying.  What you are looking to do is set up a *Windows* domain with your Linux box.  To do this, you will need to install Samba (http://www.samba.org).  Samba can emulate a windows domain server and provides file sharing, and it will also allow you to set up "roaming profiles" for the users in your house.  Caveat: If I recall correctly, Windows XP home does not support domain logins, which also means no roaming profiles.  I'd suggest looking at the SAMBA Howto at:\n\nhttp://us2.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/\n\nAlso, just so you know, when you say domain server, usually in the UNIX/Linux world this is referring to a DNS (Domain Name) Server, which translates hostnames into IP addresses.  Good luck.\n\n__J. Random

pretty simple actually, the command would be:\n\nip nat inside source static tcp <PRIVATE_IP> 5900 <PUBLIC_IP> 5900\n\nIf using VNC with web browser:\n\nip nat inside source static tcp <PRIVATE_IP> 5900 <PUBLIC_IP> 5900\nip nat inside source static tcp <PRIVATE_IP> 5800 <PUBLIC_IP> 5800
