How can I configure internet sharing on LAN with windows 2000 server?
83892
Windows 2000 shares all drives by default, to connect to them type &#92;&#92;<computer name>&#92;<drive name>$ example using a computer called HomePC. &#92;&#92;homepc&#92;c$ would connect you to the c drive of that computer.  If you want to share a specific folder open MyComputer, browse to the folder, right click and from the options select "sharing", then click on the "Share this folder" button.  Depending on your security rights the option may or may not be selectable, so all this is assuming you're the admin.

Here's information from Microsoft on how to do this.  If that link doesn't work do a search on http://www.microsoft.com for Ad Hoc Internet Sharing

Get a wireless router and a wireless card; connect the wireless router to the machine with the internet connection & LAN card. Next, install and configure the wireless card in the other computer and then you can share the internet with the two computers.\n\nP.S. - Don't forget to setup security on your wireless router to stop "wardrivers".

The easiest way is to buy a router or wireless router. You can set them up to access the internet or not. Once they both can get onto the internet you can go to My Network Places and set up either A "wireless home or small business network" or "Set up a Home or small business network". Y ou may need to run this on both computers so when it ask for a NETWORK name put in something other than MSHOME which it sets up as a default. \n\nNext go to your Folders or Hard drives that you want to share and set them to sharing mode.To do this RIGHT CLICK on your (for example)MY MUSIC folder, Then scrool down to SHARING AND SECURITY, LEFT CLICK. It will ask you if you are sure, Hit YES and it will set permissions. Do this on both computers Hard drive or folders that you want to share.\n\nThen reboot both computers. Next when your computer turns back on go to START, MY NETWORK PLACES and left click on your network. then you can click on it and see the files or folders you selected to share.

I Have the same model.\nI Really like it!\nWe even host our home web page behind it.\n\nWhen you say that you have Internet access but not WAN access, it kind of raises a couple of questions to me.\n\nDo all of the PCs connected to your Router have internet access? In other words, there isn't a connectivity problem or a set-up problem?\n\nHave you enabled file and print sharing? And have you set the permissions for the files and folders that you want to share?\n\nThere are two other things you may want to check.\n\n1. Make sure that your router is set up to provide "DHCP" on the LAN side.\n\n2. Make suer that your PC's are set up as DHCP clients when you connect them to your router.\n\nThe only port that you really MUST have open for your PC's to share an internet connection is port 80 (On the router).\n\nYou don't really need to open any other ports unless you are using FTP, or VPN, or a communications/sharing program like PC-Anywhere.\n\nYou router will deal with Ports being open to the WAN (Internet )side of your network, not the LAN (PC) side. \n\nAlso, if your are running different Operating Systems on your different PCs, there may be some file-sharing issues.\n\nFor instance, I have Windows 2000 on one machine, Windows XP on another machine, an Windows 98 on a third. The Windows 98 machine is the weakest member of my network, and can't easily do all of the file and printer sharing that the other 2 can do.\n\nI will allow e-mail for the rest of today, in case you have more questions or need documentation. I will be available at around 4 PM Central Time.\n\n\nGood Luck!\nI hope this helps!

get a switch/hub\n\nget two wires with which you can connect both the Pc's to the hub/switch.a CAT 5 cable basically\n\nboth of these wires should have rj-45 jacks on both sides.\n\njust plug in these wires into your pc and the hub\n\nonce done go to start->settings-> control panel->network and dial up connections\n\nright click on the connection that is showing up as active and go to the tcp/ip properties and give an ip address on one system(windows XP) as 10.10.1.1 and subnet mask as 255.255.255.0 leave the gateway as blank and on the other system(win98) give the ip addres as 10.10.1.2 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0 and gateway as 10.10.1.1\n\nthat should make it work

you do not need a server.  the basic thing to do is to make sure each machine is in the same workgroup.  That way they can share files and printers.  Pick one of the PCs as the central place to store files.  Create a folder and then share it (right click on the folder and select sharing).\n\nThen on the other PC and laptop go to my computer and click on tools and map a network drive.  Pick a letter and select browse.  You will see the workgroup name you picked and just click until you see the new folder share.  Select that and you will map the drive on the other PC and you can share files in that way.\n\nif you don't set the workgroup the exact same name on all machines you are going to have trouble. (Control Panel, System, Computer Name).

Yes, use windows ICS.  The instructions are in the source I added.  If your two computers aren't connected through a cross over cable, you will need a switch or hub.  Then with the second nic card in the server computer connect that to the internet.  Right click on the internet connection and select internet connection sharing.\n\nBest of luck.

plug both computers into the router with ethernet cables.  The dns should set up to do the routing already.  Go and right click the files/folders you want to share and goto the sharing option.  THen on the other computer goto my network places and view workgroup computers, if you dont see the other computer try going up a level since they might be under different workgroups.

Well! First make sure you hav lan cards on both the computers, then connect them using a lan cable on the backside of the computer on the ethernet port.\nNext,\nIf you are Using Windows:\nOpen Control Panel > Network Connections\nRight click on the icon showing 'Local Area Connection' and click on Properties\nSelect TCP/IP on the list of items and click on Properties\nSelect 'Use the following IP Address'\nEnter as follows:\n      IP address: 169.169.169.168\n      Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0\n      Default Gateway: 169.169.169.168\n      Preffered DNS Server: 222.222.222.222\n      Alternate DNS Server: (Leave blank)\nDo this on the other machine: \n      \n      IP Address: 169.169.169.167\n      Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0\n      Default Gateway: 169.169.169.167\n      Preferred DNS Server: 222.222.222.222\n      Alternate DNS Server: (Leave blank)\nClick Ok\nClick on 'Set up a home or small Office Network' in 'Network Tasks' (left side)\nA wizard will open\nClick next\nClick next\nSelect the third option\nSelect the third option\nClick next \nclick next\nClick on 'Turn on File and Printer Sharing'\nClick next and then click finish\n\nRun the wizard on the other computer too\nNext, right click on the drives which you want to share(both the machines) go to the sharing tab, check 'Share this folder on the Network' and check 'Allow network users to change my files'\nThe drives will be displayed in 'My Network Places'\nIt should be in your Start menu!\nThat's It\nEnable LAN(Right click on icon and click enable) on both the PCs and enjoy! \nAnd plz rate this ans as the best if you want!

Use the same Workgroup and unique Computer name.  Right click on MY COMPUTER and pick PROPERTIES.  Go to the Network Identification section and set these. \n\nLook for the other computers in the Network Places section.  I would RIGHT CLICK on Network Places, and pick EXPLORER.  Then open the icon for Entire Network.  \n\nIn general, you will have no problems POKING into your Windows 98 computer, since security is really lacking.   But you might have to ADD your Account and Password and add sharing permissions on your Windows 2000 computer. \n\nGood luck

do ipconfig on both laptops\n\ntry &#92;&#92;<ipaddr>,  for eg if your friends laptop shows 10.0.0.1\nenter &#92;&#92;10.0.0.1 in the "run" window\n\nIf you have enabled network file sharing, you should see all shared files on the other system (control panel->add/remove programs -> windows component -> networking components)\n\nIf this doesnt work, as a last resort get filezilla client and server

Just connect One of the server using the LAN that is the ethernet port OR Wifi port then connect the other with the Help of the USB port or By the WIFI port.
