Running WinXP over a dialup connection, I'm tring to
sharing Internet. It's the problem with the other XP
machine. Can ping the client from the Host, but cannot
ping Host machine from the client.

Something I'm missing?
 
Sounds like the Internet Connection Firewall in XP is
enabled on the machine you call the host. In Control
Panel, open Network Connections, right click on Local Area
Connection for your ethernet adapter and click Properties.
Click the Advanced tab and uncheck the box to turn off ICF
and click OK.
