In order for ICS to work the HOST must have a STATIC IP address...

On the Windows98 SE ICS wizzard the ip address of 192.168.0.1 and
mask 255.255.255.0 is given automatically.
However that IP address is reserved from another machine on the network that
for some reasons I cannot change
its IP.

Is there a way to have ICS working on another STATIC IP address? Say
192.168.0.5?

I am trying to configure windows 98 SE edition, but since XP has it too , I
want to know that also.
