denA friend has 2 PCs running Win2kPro, but only 1 modem. He wants to set up the system so both computers can access the internet but he oesn't want to use W2kServer.
How does he do it? more specifically, how do I do it, since I'm the one who'll be helping him. Anyone point me to a good resource?
oh... and the computer with the modem is running Win2K AND WinXP. He prefers to use XP over 2K, but some of his book keeping software doesn't run under XP so he has to boot into 2K. Will that cause a conflict I should be aware of.?

Install it, and set it up on the computer with the modem. Then, on the second computer, on a per-program basis, set it up to use the specified ports (try readme.txt) on the host computer, using the host computer's IP address as the "proxy server" (should be something like 192.168.0.1).
This will give you full net access on the main computer, and partial on the second. I've found it to be quite reliable.
