Re: [SRS] Can't share connection any more
Putting 192.168.0.1 on the ethernet as a gateway knocks me off the Internet.
I've got to get some sleep too. Thanks for your help. Really appreciate it. I'm still stymied and will get at it again tomorrow.

countryjoe,
I think you need to disable ICS and reboot, then re-enable it. Your IP address was incorrect on your Host NIC until you manually reset it which leads me to believe that ICS wasn't set up properly on your Host machine.
I second the suggestion that you download and run the LCCU, but only after you get ICS redone. After you re-do ICS, verify that you can ping your Host machine from the laptop and vice versa. If either fails, check your Zone Alarm alerts logs (on both machines) and see if it's blocking anything.
I can post more images if needed.

| Seagreen,
I made my TCP/ICP properties look just like yours, by removing addresses for the Preferred and Alternate DNS servers in the General tab. (Only exception is that on the 3rd shot, instead of an "Interface metric" box with a value of one, my program only offers a check box for "Automatic metric."
Re: disabling ICS -- which one? There is an ICS on both the Local Area Connection icon and on the Satellite icon. Disable both? Reboot and then re-enable which one? Should it be always disabled on the laptop, as it is now?
I tried to download the LCCU file last night, got all the way through the process, and then received a message that said the file could not be downloaded at this time, try again "sometime later," with no explanation. I'll try again when I need it.

This might be part of the problem - you should have ICS enabled only on your Satellite connection on your host machine. If you enabled connection sharing for any thing else or on any other machine, please remove all those.

| OK, followed instructions. Disabled ICS, re-booted. Enabled ICS, re-booted.
Never had ICS configured on anything BUT the satellite connection. It is only set on that now. Nothing on laptop.
All pings work. But...still no Internet connection on the laptop.
Don't think Zone Alarm is the problem. It's disabled on the laptop and I tried everything with it disabled on the host as well. No difference.

From the laptop (client machine) can you:•ping the host (192.168.0.1) - when you said all pings work I'm assuming you included this step•ping an Internet IP address such as 198.77.116.39 (www.direcpc.com) Use this command line (ping -w 3000 198.77.116.39)•ping an Internet URL such as www.direcpc.com. Use this command line (ping -w 3000 www.direcpc.com)

| On the laptop:
I can ping the host.
I can ping 198.77.116.39
I cannot ping www.direcpc.com -- message is: "Ping request could not find host. Please check the name and try again." Multiple tries, no luck.
Incidentally, as I mentioned early yesterday, no icon for the satellite connection has shown up on the laptop (in Network Connections) since we started the process. It always was there in the past when I could connect to the Internet. I think someone else said not to worry, but it seems to me it should be there.
Tried to go to the direcway site for that LCCU file. Apparently, the long registration process I went through last night didn't take. I am not recognized. I tried to re-do an application and was stopped midway with message saying registration could not be completed at this time. Try again sometime later.

| OK, you have a connection through to the internet on your Laptop, although I'm not entirely satisfied that it's all correct yet. 
You should be able to download the LCCU here: »www.groundcontrol.com/downdirecway_001.htm
or here: »www.fastpcsolutions.net/id80.htm

| Your not getting DNS resolution for the laptop. 1 more time for those of us playing along at home, run "ipconfig /all" on the laptop and paste the results. Oh, so close.....

I've never used the LCCU - does it put the DNS servers in for the client machine's NIC?

This is a screenshot of the network connections from my son's XP Pro laptop (a wireless ICS client machine).
I believe you get the Satellite Connection icon when both the Host and the Client machine are WinXP.

| My host and client computers are both XP (Pro on the laptop, although I only installed Pro because nothing was working with XP Home on the lap, but this did not change anything with respect to the satellite connection).
My Internet Connections tab looks like your son's, except that I don't have Wi-Fi. My 1394 connection is the same. In LAN or High Speed Internet section, I show the "Wireless Network Connection, enabled; device is the Instant Wireless Network PC card. I have the same items in the Bridge section, and both are disabled.

No it doesn't, or at least it didn't on my Win 98 laptop, I haven't tried it on an XP client to see.
countryjoe:
Earlier you stated you could ping the ip address for direcway.com, try putting "http://198.77.116.39" in the browser address bar of your laptop and see if that works. Just want to make sure your problem is you can't get DNS resolution and not that you can't get to the internet at all.

| Interesting. With that URL address in the browser address bar, a screen came up and I got this message, exactly as shown:
"Forbidden
"You don't have permission to access / on this server.
"Apache/1.3.9 Server at bahamut.direcpc.com Port 80"
Not sure what this all means. Did I actually connect to that site, but was forbidden entry?

This is a long shot, because I have NO idea what I'm talking about, but look at the listing I sent from ipconfig /all. One item is about IP routing (No) -- is my computer not converting addresses (like www.direcpc.com) into IP addresses?
Again, I'm just flailing here, and that IP routing may mean zilch.
