Internet Connection Sharing with Linux

[Guest]

I've been trying to network my Linux computer with this
Windows XP machine. I'm trying to connect the Linux machine
through this computer using the Internet Connection Sharing
feature. In doing so, however, I think I've seriously
messed up some kind of configuration, and I get an error
message that tells me "Cannot accept control messages at
this time" or something like that when the network is
enabled and I try to share and/or firewall my dial-up
connection. What can I do to fix this problem and is
Internet Connection Sharing possible with Linux?

It's possible. When you get the error try typing "sc queryex sharedaccess"
at a command prompt and post the results.
