hi all

i have recently installed a linux redhat 8 with webmin, and is using it as
an router on my network, i´m a part of a larger network (we have our own
network where i live)

The general network is at 192.168.1.X and is being handled by an Windows
2000 DHCP Server

I have 5 pc´s at home (all windows XP) , i have then configured the linux
box to act as a dhcp for my own 5 pc´s at the 192.168.5.X network, the linux
acts as a dhcp-server for my 5 pc´s at home

this works flawlesly, and i´m quite happy about it, the only thing i cant
figure out, is how to see the other computers on the general network
(192.168.1.x)

i can ping all the other computers, but i cant see them in "network
neighbourhood", and also they cant see my 5 pc´s

i can only see my own computers when i browse network neighbourhood..

do u have any ideas?, keep in mind that i´m using Webmin, because i´m quite
a newbie into linux

sincerely

Carsten Larsen
