I have 2 pc's (one beside the other) connected with a LAN cable. I have
managed to establish a connection between them to allow the client machine to
access the internet via the host machine and also to share files and printers
from host to client.

I can't however get the host to connect to the client to do the same only in
reverse.

If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.
