able to ping, but unable to share internet

[Guest]

I have 2 XP with SP2 machines named PC A and PC B. PC A has two network
cards. One of the network cards is connecting to internet. The other is
connecting thru a cross cable to PC B. They can ping each other. I have
enabled the ICS by using the network wizard.
However, PC B still cannot get acces to internet.

Would anyone please give me an idea? Thanks!

Provide ipconfig information for each computer, as a start.
1) Start - Run - "cmd".
2) Type "ipconfig /all >c:\ipconfig.txt" into the command window.
3) Open Notepad, make sure that Format - Word Wrap is NOT checked!.
4) Open file c:\ipconfig.txt from Notepad.
5) Copy and paste entire contents of the file into your next post.
6) Identify operating system (by name, version, and Service Pack level) with
each ipconfig listing.
7) Please don't munge or omit any detail, as a case like yours will best be
resolved with details.

When you ran the network wizard, did you actually select "This computer connects
directly to the Internet. The other computers on my network connect to the
Internet through this computer."?

You have a problem because Local Area Connection 3 on pca, which should be the
ICS connection to SPARE, does not have an address of 192.168.0.1. So I don't
think ICS is running there. Once you get ICS to setup Local Area Connection 3
with the right ip address, enable DHCP on SPARE.

I have tried the network wizard again and the ICS is running on both PCs.
However, PCB still cannot access to Internet. Do I miss any configuration
on the setting? I have copied the ipconfig/all as below. Thanks!

This looks good. By any chance, is your browser the problem?

If you're using Internet Explorer (it would be better if you weren't, but that's
my opinion), check Tools - Internet Options - Connections. Make sure that
"Never dial..." is selected. Under LAN Settings, make sure that nothing is
checked.

If that doesn't help, lets diagnose the problem. Take the following code
(everything inside the "#####"). (Please verify computer names and ip
addresses).

Open Notepad. Ensure that Format - Word Wrap is not checked. Highlight then
Copy the code (Ctrl-C), precisely as it is presented, and Paste (Ctrl-V) into
Notepad. Verify, and correct, names and addresses if necessary.
Save the Notepad file as "cdiag.cmd", as type "All Files", into the root folder
"C:\".
Run it by Start - Run - "c:\cdiag".
Wait patiently.
When Notepad opens up displaying c:\cdiag.txt, first check Format and ensure
that Word Wrap is NOT checked! Then, copy the entire contents (Ctrl-A Ctrl-C)
and paste (Ctrl-V) into your next post.

Do this from both computers, please, with both computers powered up and online.

I have run the file on both PCs, thanks!

Well, you're right. PCB can't access Yahoo - either by name or ip address. And
that's all it can't do. No other symptoms.

Is Windows Firewall enabled on PCB? Try disabling it, as a test. PCB is safe
from the internet, behind PCA.

Then try resetting LSP / Winsock.
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=318584
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=811259

1. Start - Run - "cmd".
2. Type "netsh winsock reset catalog" into the command window.

Give LSP-Fix <http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm>, WinsockFix
<http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=257>, or WinsockXPFix
<http://www.spychecker.com/program/winsockxpfix.html> a shot.

If no help yet, reset TCP/IP.
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=299357

Start - Run - "cmd". Type "netsh int ip reset c:\netsh.txt" into the command
window.

If still no help, let's look at the static routes on PCA and PCB.
1) Start - Run - "cmd".
2) Type "route print >c:\route.txt" into the command window.
3) Open Notepad, make sure that Format - Word Wrap is NOT checked!.
4) Open file c:\route.txt from Notepad.
5) Copy and paste entire contents of the file into your next post.
