internet connection sharing problems
This is a discussion about internet connection sharing problems in the Windows Networking category; I have windows XP rc1 and that's not the first time i get this problem. When i try to share my pppoe connection with my lan network card (pc to pc without a hub) it says: Error 765: Internet connection sharing cannot be enabled.
I have windows XP rc1 and that's not the first time i get this problem.
When i try to share my pppoe connection with my lan network card (pc to pc without a hub) it says:
Error 765: Internet connection sharing cannot be enabled. A lan connection is already configured with the same ip address that is required for automatic ip adressing.
Normally it uses 192.168.0.1 and damn, i only have 2 nics configured like this:
nic1: internet connection card, 192.168.0.100
nic2: lan connection card, automatic ip
pppoe: dynamic ip
my last installation of rc1 worked with sharing and now i reinstalled and nothing works
i hope somebody can help me, im buying a hub to share my internet anyway, and no, i dont need a router
Thanks for help

OP

Ok
1st nic lan network for sharing (clear all settings)
2nd nic has the pppoe DHCP connection (IP Automatically assigned)
Remove any sharing information and setup. Now if you right click on 2nd nic in the properities page of "My network Place" and select create a new connection from the file menu, proceed with the on screen directions, it will automatically assign an IP to 1st nic for sharing and setup DHCP for all computers connected to the hub that 1st nic is attached to. Its not hard, if you have any trouble just ask.
Good Luck
