Dear Friends,

I have one Windows 2003 server and 5 nodes of windows XP Pro with SP2. I
have one Broadband internet connection in one of the windows xp pc. my IP of
this PC have kept 192.168.0.1 and i have enabled Internet sharing. And the
setting for other nodes have kept IP Automatically. But none of the nodes
caputure IP..and gives error unable to find DHCP server.

I want to share internet connection to use Netmeeting from all the nodes.

Is ther any way else...whereby i can use Netmeeting without Internet
connection sharing. Or else what can be the reson of the error and what can
be the solution.

Awaiting for your kind reply.
