As I have said before my memory will not work re networking anymore.
I used the Mandrake Control Centre to share the internet it has worked 
perfectly before.
I Do NOT remember how to do networking via a command line. If I do not do
something often the I totally forget how I did it, 2 weeks is too long to 
retain
memory.

Sorry but it has to be explained in very simple step[ terms for me these days.
A cryptic question as you ask means nothing to me. That is why partly why I 
unsubbed.
ITS bloody frustrating.
