This allows PCs or Macs to share an IP address with a Mac running OS X. After dcownloading and launching Brickhouse, click on the 'IP Sharing' tab and enable it.
On the Mac or PC that will share the connection, set up the networking thus:
- IP address: 192.168.1.2 (3, 4, 5, 6 etc for however many share the conneciton)
- Subnet mask : 255.255.255.0
- Router: 192.168.1.1
- Domain Name Servers: whatever your ISP specifies.
[Editor's note: Yes, this is a relatively straightforward tip ... but some people may not know about Brickhouse or its capabilities. It's also possible to do this with the built-in OS X networking tools, but it won't be quite so easy without a GUI tool like Brickhouse. You can also, of course, add a hardware router to the network to accomplish the same result.]
