Problems with 'non-standard' ICS on XP machines.

Hello all, first off I have ICS working as follows:
1) Desktop XP-Pro SP2 (DESK1), ICS Host, dialup internet shared over
WLAN, workgroup is MSHOME, DHCP enabled, 192.168.0.1 static.
2) Laptop XP-Home SP2 (ACER), ICS client, DHCP assigned
3) Desktop XP-Pro SP2 (DESK2), ICS client, DHCP assigned
The above works fine, set up using the network wizard.
However, I want to use workgroup WORKGROUP - it didn't work.
I found out that even though I had specified WORKGROUP on all machines,
on DESK1 it made the WLAN adapter DESK1.mshome.net, (My
Computer->Properties->Computer Name shows WORKGROUP), needless to say,
it didn't work.
DESK1 also has two GBit and an IEEE1394a adapter. I want to bridge one
of the GBit adapters and the IEEE1394a and give them a static address.
As soon as I do it, ICS stops working.
Are there reasons why these problems should happen?
Is there a way toget what I want rather than what Windows wants?
TIA,
Dave
