I have a Server running SBS 2003, 3 Clients running XP Pro and an unmanaged
Switch. I had a BT DSL modem whcih I have connected to the USB port on the
Server. From the Server I can see the web but I cannot configure the Server
to allow internet access from the Clients. I have followed in-built and web
"Help" screens but there is no Enable Internet Sharing screen or tab anywhere.

Is ICS possible with a USB DSL Modem or must I use a router connected to one
of the RJ45 ports? If the former, how??

THanks

Alan

Internet connection sharing is not the way to go
Ideally you want two nics...and a DSL modem that supports RJ45
You then run the Connect to the Internet Wizard on the SBS server

Thanks and much appreciated. You're the first person to state that what I'm
doing isn't going to work. Other parties, including Microsoft, have waffled
on about what could happen and how I can spend lots of money with them! I
have a router on order so hopefully all will be well.

Kind regards
