Hi Steve,
The reason for that is that there will be a firewall put
in place at a later stage that will handle the dhcp and
the rest.

I have setup internet connection sharing before, but the
option to do that is not available here on the connection
for some reason or another. I winxp and plain 2003 the
option is there and it will install or ask if it can
install dhcp if it is not there. But sbs is na new one
for me. So i can only guess that the option is not there
due to teh fact that dhcp is not installed.

I use a modem from billin or something like that I can't
remember the excat spelling and the modem is not branded.
It installs a wan wrapper that is used, so there is no
actual modem that can be queried via 'phone and modem
options', this trew me at first but got it figured out
and got the modem to work. But it only works on the
server GGGRRRRRRRR.

Thx for the help so far.

Cheers,

Maartin.
