[plug] plip windows 98 <-> linux

[Andrew Pamment]

hi,

my flat mate has a laptop the we would like to add to our network. He 
cant afford a pcmcia ethernet card, and we have a laplink cable. I was 
wondering if it's possible to use that as another network device, then 
somehow route stuff between the laplink and my ethernet card and ppp 
connection. i don't know a lot about networking, but i understand you 
can use plip? problem is he has win98 and well, i don't think linux is 
for him in this lifetime. is it possible? and if so can someone point me 
in the direction of some info on it?

thanks

andrew
