Ok i have two PCs networked
-one with a 56k modem, running Win2k
-one client running XPpro
i set it up for ICS and it all worked fine :) grins all round
but now (after a bit of fiddeling) its "broke" - it just doesnt work at all!!!
- the network is still good - printer sharing File shareing etc etc
- I've tryed re-seting it it up, but stilll nothink!!!
- i used the http://www.practicallynetworked.com guide - but im just stuck
can any one help
thanks oshta
Bring up the TCP/IP config screen for the client and write out what it says....
Also make sure the server has the IP address of 192.168.0.1.
NS
U mean this??

is that the settings from the server ? (machiene with direct internet connection) aka HAS THE MODEM
that would be the client
but the host looks the same
The host should be configured with the IP 192.168.0.1 subnet mask 255.255.255.0 rather than set to automatic.
why
- it worked before like that!!
- that one of the way that the practicallynetworked.com guide sayed i could do it!!
- i tryed it the other way and it was no better
so why do you say that?
When you say "resetting it back up", you do include deleting the isp's connection + removing both network cards from device manager and then starting from scratch?
Firewall software needs to have been mentioned - even if you state that you arnt using any.
Its better to set up by hand as its a fraction esier setting up the firewall sometimes and also you dont have to hunt around for each machines ip address all the time :)
