Do you have any Dial Up connection? What do you have? A+, MCP, CCNA

What operating system are you using--I think they are refering to Win2k or WinXP. If you are using Win98 ICS is an Add on program in control panel add programs.
 
I have a Win2k Server with 2 network cards and one Dial-up.
 
wich of those three is the one providing internet connection, DIal-up or the NICs? A+, MCP, CCNA

if is Dial-up, the go to the Connection Properties, and GO to Sharing TAb, theere you will find a check box for sharing the connection..If not, you might use internally DHCP in your network, but it depends on what configuration you have, and what your ISP is giving you. A+, MCP, CCNA

It is dial-up but when i go to the properties i dont have a sharing TAB.

I have the same dial-up connection on a win2k pro machine and i get the share tab within the properties.

Can this not be done in win2k server?
 
Anyone have any ideas? as this is driving me nuts!!

cheers
