Configure Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)

Windows 98SE and Me include a feature called Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) which enables networked PCs to easily share a single Internet connection. These settings allow you to configure some ICS parameters.

Open your registry and find the key below.

Change the values from the table below according to your requirements:

* Enabled (DWORD) - "1" = enable ICS, "0" = disable
* EnabledDHCP (DWORD) - "1" = enable DHCP server, "0" = disable
* EnabledDNS (DWORD) - "1" = enable DNS server, "0" = disable
* IntranetInfo (String) - comma-separated IP address of ICS host and the subnet mask (e.g. "192.168.0.1,255.255.255.0").

Restart Windows for the changes to take effect.


Settings:
System Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\ICSharing\Settings\General]
Name: Enabled, IntranetInfo, EnableDHCP, EnableDNS
