in win2k you just bring up the properties for the network connection that hooks to the internet and click on the advanced tab and click share this connection. Pretty much the same in winxp

hmm at my house i had to delete some firewall that was on my nic that XP automatically installed on my computer. Then I shared a folder then everything seemed to run smoothly now.
