[QUOTE="Amen-Moses, post: 4688, member: 114"] Do you have the firewall on? I read in my Mac OSX book that the machine connected to the cable/modem must have the firewall disabled in order to enable internet sharing. The reason being apparently that Apple are trying to get everyone to buy the AirWave base station thingy which includes it's own Firewall. The other new thing in OSX is that Rendezvous is supposed to auto detect the machines and allocate local IP addresses automatically so you shouldn't have to manually set up the Macs, it will also detect Rendezvous ready peripherals like printers and scanners connected to any of the network ready ports, i.e Firewire, USB or Ethernet. Win XP is also supposed to negotiate Rendezvous protocol but I'll believe that when I see it! Amen-Moses [/QUOTE]
