What kind of internet connection and how is it shared?
Let's say it's a DSL line with the DSL router running straight into the hub, you
don't set up Windows Internet Connection Sharing for that. On the few I have setup,
the DSL router is also the DHCP server for the network. So, you set up each station's
network settings for a DHCP connection.
If the internet connection is running to ONE station and shared from there then that's
going to be your "server" with a static IP and Win ICS enabled and will act as your
DHCP server.
It sounds like XP wants to take charge here when it should just be getting set up
as a regular ole workstation ( I have very little XP networking experience BTW)
I'd say the boss running around with his little disk screwed things up, now you get
to fix it.
