Network internet connection

[kenwoodall]

Firstly here is my configuration I need help with.

My friends windows xp machine has a broadband connection in another part of the house.

My iMac connects to this wirelessly via a wifi dongle.

I also have a windows xp machine networked to my iMac via a crossover cable.

I would like to be able to have my xp box connect to the internet by perhaps accessing the wifi dongle on my Mac.

I know I could just purchase another dongle and do it that way, easier but would defeat the purpose.

So I hope this is possible and you can help.

Sorry for all the windows references, I'll wash my mouth later.

Thanks
Ken

Well it can be done with a HACK but with XP you both sound be sitting behind a HARDWARE FIREWALL (like a modern cheap router).

Is there a reason you're asking this question again? You have a reply to the first time you asked it:

If that doesn't work for you, simply say so, but keep it in the same thread. There is no need to start a brand-new thread for the exact, same question.
