I'm having same problem, tho with XP and 2000. They can see each other and share files, no internet tho. Installed Sygate works like a champ now. Had to set the 2000 machine with the DSL with 192.168.0.1 and the XP machine to use DHCP. Seems to work.

 

 

Hope that helps

In some cases it's a good idea to try Netbeui when your win2k/win98/winxp machines can't c each other .. in the case of winxp it's located on the winxp cd in this folder : VALUEADD\MSFT\NET\NETBEUI .. just read the installation instructions there.

to give external computers access to your shared printers and folders, you have to run the network setup wizard, found in network connections.

 

Just specify "other" and then first option. now your computer should be accessible from win9x and win2k
