Hey, i'm trying to set up two computers, so i can let the computer running win 98, sharing the internet off of the XP computer, which is directly connected to the internet... so:

INTERNET ...... XP computer ........ 98 Computer.

I've tried setting up internet connection sharing on the XP computer, and all seems well, but, the 98 computer... i have no idea what to do on that. Tried fiddling about with the networking settings and setting up an internet connection, via the LAN settings, but no joy.

I also tried running the setup program XP lets you create when setting up internet connection sharing, but still nothing. Any ideas?

Sharing an internet connection. XP > 98
