My setup a dial up connection with Windows Server 2003 enterprise edition and 3 workstations all using Windows Xp Pro. They all connect to the domain and share files. but not to the internet.. I don't understand what I've done wrong this being my first time to setup this.. any help would be wonderful and if any more information is needed just ask(Thanks again)

OK in that case i assume you are using a 90 day evaluation edition!!!!!!!!!!

If you want experience, use Routing and Remote Access rather than internet connection sharing.

Run RRASMGMT.MSC and run through the wizard.

The 180 timebomb edition anyways I went through the wizard but It isn't connecting on the other computers

"Routing and Remote Access" Does anyone have a guide for this? I'm using dial up and sat here all day trying to make it work..

First...does the server itself surf the internet?
Second...post an IPCONFIG of a workstation.

Actually...first...read this article.

Make sure DNS is correct on the server and workstations. Even though you're trying to fiddle with RRAS and dial up...still the same basics.
