I have two computers connected together with a 10/100 UTP Hub at 100Mbps. One machine is a Win98 SE and the other a Win2k. The Win2k machine connects to the Internet using a 56k modem. Both machines are connected together using TCP/IP, IPX and NetBEUI with IP only for the Internet. I have attempted to make the Win2k a sharing machine by enabling this on the dialup adapter. The sharing machine uses 192.168.0.1 The Win98 machine uses DHCP and is allocated with 192.168.0.99 by the Win2k system. Internet Explorer 5.5 has no dialup adapter only a LAN connection set. When IE5 is launched the Win2k machine successfully dials the Internet. In the mean time the Win98 machine times out and shows 'server or DNS not found'. If I hit refresh on the Win98 after the sharing machine is connected the status bar shows the DNS lookup but no connection is made. The sharing machine shows activity from the LAN and then the dialup adapter to the Internet.
I think the address translation is getting screwed up but don't know what to try next. None of the Internet resources have helped :-( Win98 has an ICS setup Wizard but Win2k does not appear to have one. There is only one tick box to turn ICS on for a specific adapter. Any suggestions appreciated. |
