I have successfully set up the Microsoft UAM. I can see printers and the
shared volume. I have not been able to successfully share the internet
connection.

When I try to use the ICS checkbox in 'Network Connections' window, I
receive an error saying that I cannot install ICS while RRAS is enabled. To
install ICS I must disable RRAS. However, I don't think I want to do this, do
I?

Here is my network:

1 - Win Srvr 2003 Std (Domain controller)
2 - Win XP Pro SP2 PC's
1 - iMac OS 8.6
 
You can really only have RRAS or ICS. If your XP PCs can connect to the
internet and the Mac is on the same network then some investigation is in
order on the Mac. It may be that all of the network services that are seen
by the Mac are over Appletalk and the TCP/IP configuration on the Mac does
not match that which is required by your network. You can compare TCP/IP
setting on the PCs to those on the Mac.
