Can this be done?

[jeffnoblacks]

I have a two computer network. The first is running Windows Me and connects to the internet using a modem. The second formerly had been running Win 98 SE. I have recently installed NT Server 4.0 on the second computer to practice working with it. The two computers are connected without a hub with a crossover cable. Previously the second computer would connect to the internet through ICS. Now I want the NT Server machine to connect through the lan using the Win Me machine's ICS. How can I get this to work? The reason I don't to use a modem to dial my ISP with the NT Server machine, is that I want to use the modem in it to dial into it remotely. Am I making any sense?

In other words, can I share the internet connection on the Win Me machine with a Win NT Server machine? Do I need a third-party software like WinGate or WinProxy?

Thanks for any help

Shouldn't you be able to set the ME machine as the gateway for the NT server?

Just do ICS like you normally do. I think this is the setup you have in mind:

Internet<---WinME Box<---NT4

Is this correct? Just give the NT box a non-routable IP address and set the default gateway to whatever the WinME box's IP address is.
