Man my server Admin book has me so confused now. I was reading about using W2K server as the net gateway and I'm toaly lost now.
I was reading about RRAS I was understanding some and then it got all techenical and now I'm lost.
The kids room has no phone jack. was no big deal on dsl as I had cable routed neatly though the kitchen now I don't want to run a phone wire though there too. Also I don't want to buy more modems.
I just want to take their XP machine, the W2K box in the living room and my XP box in here and have them cat5ed to the hub and that to the W2K server, and have that dail out on demand to the net when ether I or the Kids want to get online.

Forget about RRAS then Mad :)

What you need to read up on is "ICS" (Internet Connection Sharing) It works both with broadband as well as Modem :)

I second that. ICS is the easiest way to go.
