I am new here, but I was wondering if you all could help. I used a cross over cable to network two boxes both running win 2000. One box has a connection to a cable modem. I would like to share taht connection with the other box but i cant get the sharing to work. I have tried with a static IP on both boxes over the in house network, I have tried with autodetect settings on both boxes, I have tried with static on one box and static on the other, and vice versa, and still nothing seems to work. The second box has not had any of the win2k service packs installed. If anyone could help I would be very appreciative. Thanks.
