Re: Internet Connection Sharing AND networking?

Did not work. Still have the same problem: I can get to the Internet through
the XP computer from the 98 computer, but I can't see the XP computer from
the 98 computer nor the reverse.

I cannot disable the firewall for just the LAN connection. If I disable the
firewall on the LAN, the firewall is also disabled on the dial-up connection
to the Internet (I don't want to do that! The log shows just about constant
port probes from various ip addresses)....

Ideas,
Owen
