RE: Help with ICS

["Brian G. Reynolds" <brian.g.reynolds@xxxxxxx>]

I will look at this site Dan, looks interesting.

 

I have already powered down/up the modem on my Proliant and have all the IP's correct, in fact I now have fixed IP's instead of DHCP to track the PC's better.

 

I have checked the box for sharing but still no joy, but I will look at the unchecking bit on the clients, I think this might be checked.

 

When I installed ZoneAlarm Pro it asked if I wanted ICS to which I answered yes, but it still did not work.

 

In fact I only have two things now not working, one being ICS and the other being to view my CCTV images on my HV web server, have not fiddled with the latter for ages and only moved the CCTV switcher to my server this Sunday just gone, so time to try again.

 

Thanks again.

I gave this link to Alan, because I found it incredibly useful in setting up my NTL cable modem and configuring my firewall - it gives you instructions for all of the IP addresses/ranges that should be added to your firewall to minimise upset by NTL.

 

There's also a wealth of troubleshooting tips too.

 

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/robin.d.h.walker/cmtips.html

 

One of the sneakiest things that threw me when helping Alan, is that NTL don't tell you that the cable modem is 'locked' to the machine that was connected when it was turned on - thus you need to pull the plug from the modem so it can refresh its connection when connected to another machine.

 

With Win2K, ICS really is quite easy - just check a box on the connection that you want to share and that's it.  All client machines should *uncheck* the "detect settings automatically" box under control panel > internet options > Connections > LAN settings.  And that's it.

 

If the client machine cannot still get internet access, renew its IP address by running the following commands (start button > run) :

 

ipconfig /release   (or /release_all on win9x)

ipconfig /renew   (or /renew_all on win9x)

 

That should be it.

 

Hope this help others that are having trouble.

 

Regards,

-Dan

Glad to hear yours is working.

 

Over the time I have re-booted everything and it still does not work.

 

I actually think it is the fire wall as I am sure the settings elsewhere are correct.

 

I'll have another go later.

Brian

 

With Dan Khans help I have it all up and running, it looks as though my main problem was that I did not reboot the NTL cable modem, as such it still thought it was connected to my other machine.

 

Best of luck

Help!

Is anyone about tonight who can give me some help on the phone with setting up ICS on Win2K. I have been at it all day with no joy, I've now put on a fresh install of Win2K and would appreciate some guidance.

If someone would be good enough to mail me with their number I will call them back.

 

Thanks
