I have a question about Share 
an Internet Connection:


I use Sygate Home Network for internet sharing, my Win98SE PC as Server and my WinXP 
PC as Client.
I set all the desired network-settings, and disabled the Firewall on the WinXP PC.

Now I have access to the Win98SE PC's shared files, and most important: the WinXP 
PC is able to PING to whatever website's IP-address.

But I still cannot access internet with Internet Explorer, Outlook Express, ICQ, 
etc.  :(

Please help!

Do you have your firewall settings in Sygate set as low as possible. I have a similar setup only XP is the server and 98SE is the client. I have Norton SystemWorks and I had to set the firewall settings to minimum in order to get the two to see each other and I have no problems.

Can you tell me where I can find those firewall settings? When I click the Firewall-button, 
it goes online to the Sygate Firewall homepage... (which is one of their other products)

Thanks!

This is exactly my situation, minus the firewall on either system! Did you ever solve the problem? I really need the answer too. Thanks- J

I have a question here. My 98 is connected using ADSL via a USB modem. SO, when I try to select under ICS the connection type, it does not show the USB connection. ONly Dialup adapter and the ethernet card which connects to my XP pc. Right now, I have an ethernet card connect using a straight cabel to the XP machine. Will this work?
