When you enable ICS on the W2K system, the only change that it should
make on W2K is to assign a static IP address (192.168.0.1) to the LAN
connection. It shouldn't make any change in the IP address of the
shared Internet connection.
Configure the WinXP system's NIC connection to obtain an IP address
automatically. It will get a dynamic IP address in the 192.168.0.x
range from the W2K system.
If that doesn't describe what you're seeing, please post a news group
reply with complete details of the situation, including:
1. Which two NIC cards are getting static IP addresses? Which
computer is each NIC in?
2. What are the static IP addresses that they're getting?
