Ok guys, I need your help. I have two computers. One is running winXP and is hooked up to my DSL modem (which is USB) unfortunately. I need to share internet access to my second box, which I have running Win2k Pro. How would I do this without buying a hardware router? I have already tried using Wingate and Sygate, but all that did was to hose up my XP box. I DO have the computers succesfully shared with one another. Thanks in advance for any help!

Best Regards,
Althor

Does XP have Internet Connection Sharing? I would think that it should.... If not, then make your 2k machine the gateway to the internet and use its ICS feature.
