howto configure client computers to use server 2003 internet conne

Windows XP1127
hello everyone,



i am attempting to secure a small office network by setting up a

peer-to-peer network without a firewall device. i installed a second nic card

on the 2003 server. i then ran the "Connection Wizard" and activated the

firewall. the server was able to connect to the internet and local network

just fine (thanks microsoft for that feature). in the documentation, it says

to use the server is now the default gateway. i then configured the client

computers to use the server as the default gateway. however, this did not

give them internet access.



if you read that much i hope you can help :)



i must have missed something when configuring the client computers or the

netgear router. the documentation doesn't provide instructions on how to

configure the clients, only that the server should be used as the default

gateway.



can anyone point me to a tutorial, or provide me with instructions on how to

setup the clients.



thank you
