Ping N. Miller, Thank You...one more question

[EWood]

I followed your outline and now can connect to the internet with
the client. I connect to my ISP on the Host then DC IE on the Client
and it opens with everything working. Windows Update works, I have
installed all the critical updates etc. How do I make the Modem
Icon show up in the Notification Area on the Client? It is on the
Host, it goes there when I connect to my ISP. It may have something
to do with having to make the ISP connection on the Host before I
go to the Client, but I can't seem to get the Client to auto-dial
out to my ISP. If I don't make the connection first on the Host,
the Client does not gain access to the net.

Thanks again for your help, EWood

I wish that you had kept this in the original thread, and not started a new
thread. I will have to search back the threads to find the post you are
referring to. Too lazy, though; and I will take a stab at this being an ICS
issue. With ICS the host does the dialing, not the client. Therefore you
can't get the dial-up icon to show on the client. This also means that the
host has to be turned on.

If you set the host DUN to dial a connection when needed, and to hang up
after 'X' minutes of inactivity, that should force the host to dial when the
client tries to access the Internet. But you won't get any indication of
what is happening on the client; other than a delay between initiating an
Internet access action and getting a result when you haven't accessed the
Internet longer than the hang-up period.
