Internet Connection Sharing
Hi all, right I will explain htis the best i can,
I have 2 pc'2 running win 98SE,
1 is a p3 600, the other a Athlon 1.7gig
they are both connected via a network card, the P3 600 has the internet connection (Broadband) via another network card.

They are connected by RJ45 with a crossover cable

If i am on any one machine i can sucessfully ping the other machine's ip.

but I have run the Internet connection Sharing wizard and created a floppy disk and loaded it on the other machine, with no problems.

But when I goto connect to the internet on the other PC I cant connect to the internet, I get the page cannot be displayed error.

Has anyone else had this problem, can anyone help, I have done this once before on another a friends pc's with no problems, but this time it wont bloody work and its driving me mad.


Please help

Regards

Mark

Did you enable the ICS on the server machine (this has to be manually checked off)?

Can the two machines see each other?

Don't bother with the setup disk. All you have to do is make sure that the workgroup names are the same and that you have TCP/IP set to automatically obtain an IP address.
