I have 2 computers running Win2kPro. The one I'm on now, has 2 nic cards, and I want to share my internet connection w/ the other one. I'm on cable. Can somebody tell me how to do this? I've been tearing my hair out for the last 2 hours trying to get this to work.

I've tried enabling ICS on the NIC my cable is connected to, and I've tried enabling it on the nic the other computer is connected to with absolutely no luck. Can somebody please help me out?

I set my 100 (cable) nic to Share, and i set my 10 (other) nic to 192.168.0.1. I set the nic on the other computer to obtain an IP address automatically and then went into DOS and typed:

ipconfig/renew

And it came right up.

You can, but you need 2 nics in the sharing machine.
