Hi all,
I'm having a bit of a nightmare and would appreciate some help.
I have a Mac (OS X 10.2) connected to the Internet via an ADSL connection.
I also have a Windows XP Pro laptop and I would like to be able to get the laptop to access the Internet through the Mac's connection.
I have managed to get both computers happily networked and they can share files and ping each other over a LAN. What I cannot do is get the IE on the PC to connect to the Internet through the Mac.
I've turned on "Internet sharing" on the Mac and had no luck. I tried many different proxy server settings in IE on the PC, without it making any difference.
Hair : all torn out.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Cheers,
Matt.
