Default Error when renewing Host's IP address

I've been troubleshooting my network between my XP
computer (host) and Win 98 computer (client) for about a
month now. I can share files and printers, but not
internet.

Yesterday, I was trying to renew the IP address for my
network adapter on the host and I got this error message:
Unable to contact your DHCP server. I've tried manually
setting the IP address but that still doesn't allow me to
share internet. I keep getting DNS server is not
repsonding on my client computer.
