I have two machines......XP Prof and Windows 98.....XP Pro has two network
cards......one for intenet and one used for home network...Win98 has one
network card. I am able to set up the home net work between these two
machines using XP Prof home network setup wizard......
I can see machines available for file sharing with each other....
However, I am not able to the intenet connection available on XP pro......XP
has the intenet connection and works fine......Win98 is not working....
Please help.....
Thanks,
Sridhar

Hi,
Right-click your internet connection under settings/networking, select
properties. Go to the advanced tab and see if ICS a) exists and b) is
enabled. If it doesn't exist, run the network connection wizard and use the
advanced setup to add it.
