Hi,

I am working with a small (3 computer) LAN using ICS to share a dial-up
Internet connection. Everything is working fine as long as someone goes to
the host computer and initiates the Internet connection. If the clients try
to connect, the host will actually dial, but as soon as the connection is
established, it disconnects.

All 3 computers are running Windows XP Home. File & print sharing works
fine. The ICS works fine once the dial-up connection is established.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This is just a shot in the dark T, but I seem to remember that there was an
option to have a connection disconnect if all applications that were
accessing the internet were closed. If the host PC was set this way iti ss
possible that it could be closing the connection on purpose. Once again it's
just a shot in the dark.

Good Luck
