OKay, i got the main comp (win2k ser) as the server, i got both comps seeing each other on the network, and sharing files/drives etc etc. BUT the internet will not work on the WinME machine..? i am lost, i got static IP's on the winME box and my second NIC in the win 2k ser box, the other NIC (to the cable modem is DHCP) am i missing something??
What do i put as the gateway? 192.168.0.1? (ip of the ICS shared NIC) or do i use the same gateway that the first NIC uses?? (one going to the cable modem?)
PLEASE HELP!! i am ripp'n my brains out..lol

okay now for the DNS, it asks for a Host name and Domain (as u can see this is somewhat new to me) what do i put in the WinME box as the host and domain?(just what I have named it? 'winme' and the domain i have is 'mshome' so i just use these correct?) then do i put in the 192.168.0.1 as the DNS? or do i use the same DNS that my ISP gave me for my first NIC? i assume the same as the ISP?
Listen,
You don't need to havy anything entered in the gateway field, nor the DNS, nor the WINS etc.
The server has a static IP Address. Any clients should have it set to 'Use DHCP to determine Ip' That is in windows 98,
'Determine IP automatically'
If the server (gateway) is a win9x box, make sure netbeui is installed for both adapters. I have done Internet connection sharing to death. There are so many misconceptions about what is right and what is wrong. A clever guide can be found HERE
1) Microsofts ICS works fine.
2) Sygate is crap.
3) the only 'tweak' that effects your cable/dsl speed is changing your RWIN. All the rest are just myths.
