I'm trying to set up Internet Sharing on my Main PC
running Windows 2000 Professional SP3. The only Major
problem is, I don't have the "Sharing Tab" where it says
it should be located...
My Network Places -> Properties -> Right Click on my
connection and select Properties -> There should be
a "Sharing Tab" inside, but mine only lists ONE
tab, "General". How do I share my internet connection with
another PC? or another PC and 1 Playstation 2?

Hello,

how many network cards do you have in your PC?
You need 2 real physical network cards, or 1 real network card and a dial up
adapater.
This depends on how you connect to the internet.

Possible solutions:

a)
Install a network card

b)
Use a broadband router

The only problem with this is, it tells me to do what I
explained below, and there is no Internet sharing tab.

Depending on the type of connection you are configuring,
different options appear. For example, a local area
connection only displays the General tab.
