Default winme(client) and win98(ICS)

Hello, Steve!

SWM Your ICS host computer has two network adapters:

SWM 1. The "ICSHARE Adapter" is the shared Internet connection, which
SWM is invisible to the client computer. ...

It's been a long while since I ever looked at ICS. I should have realized
the "invisible" part! Thanks.


SWM To allow a computer on the Internet to access the client computer's
SWM VNC server, you'll have to configure both the Speedstream modem and
SWM the ICS host computer to open holes in their firewalls and forward
SWM VNC packets to the client computer.

I'm familiar with using a couple of ICSconfig tools. Opening holes in ICS
should go well. I just never had to deal with a Speedstream 4200 before.
Apparently it's modem that is only sold to ISPs as part of their DSL package
to customers, so there is little info on manual configuration of the model.
The interface via http:// 192.168.2.10 is really minimal! Meanwhile, I
found a manual online which I hope will help.
