    Network Bridge in Win2k Server

    Does anyone know if I can bridge two network connections in win 2k server.

    You can do it in winxp and I know you can't in 2k pro but can it be done in 2k server.

    I want to setup the 2k server box as a wireless access point.

    I have a normal wired LAN connected to a NAT ADSL router but would like to use a laptop wirelessly.

    I want to have it on the same subnet as the rest of the machines and with internet access.

    I would rather do this without extra software such as Sygate or Winroute.

    Any suggestions would be appreciated..
    Thanks
    Nathan

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounds like you want to setup Win2K as a proxy server. You can do this with Win2K Server AND Pro.

    Right-click My Network Places -> Properties, right-click the NIC connected to your ISP -> Properties, click Sharing tab, click the checkbox that says "Share this connection". That's about it.
    DON'T PANIC
