ok i take it you cant dp it with server, so i tried windows 200 with windows 2000 and now iam getting the reverse lol
i can ping each other but not able to share folders or join the internet,
i have done the access folder on both pc and changed a setting on my client connection ie so i can see the net and not get a time out. but i cant seem now to share files and connect to the net with client but with the host i can log on to the net,
another funny thing i cant see in the host section the second check box to enable it to auto connect or something like that in the same section as the litle box to click ics. hummm
iam running 2000 pro on board nic on a client, host pci nic win2000 connection usb modem.
