Using ICS, can W98 host an XP Pro client?

I want to use an old Pentium 133 for the 'router' part of a broadband connection while using my XP Pro box as the client.
 
Yes, but many have experienced problems using win98 as the host and winXP as a client. With only P133, I would use any linux-flavor firewall application (i.e., Coyote Linux or Freesco - only requires a floppy drive)
 
I agree... with your P133, if you're not going to be using the system for more than ICS, try running a linux-based router program that can be run off a floppy disk. It'll work fine with any OS that you wish to use as a client.
