Internet access for guests?

[Michael]

I would like guests to be able to connect to the
internet, but am unable to set up a connection while
signed in as a guest, it says I must be logged on as the
administrator, but I've already got my connection sorted
out???

Hi kelly - thanks for the advice. My problem is that when
I am not connected to the internet and a guest may want
to check their e-mail for example, there is no internet
connection available to them. I have tried to set one up
while logged on as a guest, but it says i need to log on
as an admin. While in administrator, is their something I
can do to 'share' my connection details?

Hi Michael,

By default the Guest account wasn't given online access for XP. However, I
have it here on my systems using ICS via a hub and the edit I mentioned.
All of my machines and guest accounts can gain access via an individual dial
out independantly.
