My Win2k Already setup an account for my Win98 client to access file, everything working fine now accept internet connection sharing process.. I look into Administration Tools from win2k and open up Services, and found an option "internet connection sharing" so I have started the service, but on my win98 still can not use internet connection. I already add an account in win2k for which identical w/ win98 login..


Is there somewhere in win2k I need to check in to have this internet share connection working on win98? please give simple steps...

ok if internet shareing is enabled you will need to go on your win98 machine and enable DNS. Then for the DNS use your win2k ip. Then also put your win2k ip as the gateway.

My machine at home:

Windows 2k (192.168.0.1)
Windows 98 (192.168.0.2)
SUBNET MASK(255.255.255.0) - both machines
----<font size="3"><pre>
Windows 98 - DNS = 192.168.0.1
GATEWAY = 192.168.0.1
