Hello,

I cant find any tools for the Windows XP Internet Connection Sharing.
I was looking for some logging, reporting, monitoring tools but couldnt find
anything.
Now i wonder if there are any tools at all that somehow give a benefit to
ICS.

I really enjoy using it and dont want to use something else but its a
blackbox that is either On or Off and i would like some more info/control.

Thanks
Thorsten

Hi Thorsten,

ICS is just that.  A blackbox.  You can run diagnostics on the computer itself,
but that's it.

unfortunately its working on a deeper level so a basic netstat and tools
like netlimiter dont see its traffic.
I was expecting that there is nothing but it was worth a try :)

thanks
