hi

I have 2 computer ( 1 server running Win2k3, 1 WS running Win XP), internet
goes to server ( with 2 NIC)and using ICS to share to XP, and i just bought
a laptop which i wanted to connect to this network ( sharing internet), and
i don't want to spend extra money to buy any hardware so i dig up another
old NIC and install to the server computer, now since ICS can only share to
1 NIC i cannot share internet to the 3rd NIC, is there anyway that i can
share the internet comming from 1st NIC to 2nd AND 3rd NIC by ICS? if not,
is there anyother ways to do that without investing money on more hardware?
i try to bridge 2nd and 3rd nic and it don't seems to work......

anything suggestions are appericate, since i rarely connect the laptop to
the network i feel bad to spend hundred bugs to buy a hub/router for it =D
thx in advance

ICS will only work with two NICs. You'll need a hub or switch to add more
PCs.
