Hi There

Posted before so any suggestions appreciated

Hi There,

I have 2 XP Pro SP2 pc's internet sharing through a isdn modem. Whats
happening is the internet dialup kicks off every few minutes.

I have put both PC's IP and Computer Name in the host file

Any suggestions

Thanks
Dave
 
ICS basically acts as a Dial-on-DNS router. This means it will be very
trigger-happy with dialup accounts, because any app or service that initiates
a name-enquiry which can't be resolved locally will cause dialling. The WINS
service is a favorite for this. Even networked printers can be responsible!

I would suggest using a proxy for internet-sharing on a dialup line. Trying
to control false-dialling on router-based systems is not easy. Analogx proxy
is one of the simplest. Jana Server has more functionality though.
 
Hi Ian,

Tried those programs and its still dialing up, its connecting through dlink
isdn TA

On the ICS PC i have disconnected it from the network and it still dials up.
