disable ICS and try again RRAS

I am trying to build a network with Win2K3, WinXP Pro, two nics, and a cable
modem.
I have the cable modem on one nic and it works(IE I can send this message).
I have AD,DNS,DHCP, and RRAS installed.
Everything is set to "Obtain Automatically" because the Internet provider
uses DHCP there is no gateway or DNS addreses to use the internet.
To configure RRAS to share the internet it say to turn off ICS.
I turned off ICS and ICF (Enabled Prohibit use of ICS/ICF in the Defaut
Domain Policy).
It still says "disable ICS to configure RRAS". Also I can share folders with
the client but it cannor join the Domain

How do I disable ICS so I can configure RRAS to share the internet on my
client.

I got the client connected to the Domain. I forgot to Authorize DHCP.

You would need to disable ICS [if it is enabled] in the properties of the
network connection that is using it. My advice is to instead use a NAT/PAT
router/firewall device instead anyhow and you really want to avoid enabling
RRAS on a domain controller. They are dirt cheap. Just be sure to disable
DHCP on it and use it as the default gateway for your network computers.
Then see the link below on configuring dns for an Active Directory domain
which is CRUCIAL to getting everything working right. ---- Steve

Coming to you Live from my client routed through Domain to cable modem. I
removed everything and reran Configure your Server with defaults and it
worked automatically. Now I don't need to buy a router just a switch, or
hub, or nics and crossover cables.

Well I am glad you got it to work but I still think it is best not to use a
domain controller for RRAS, though in your case you may be using it more for
testing, learning, or fun. The NAT/PAT routers all come with a switch built
in usually at a price for less than the price of a switch alone and keep a
lot of traffic from ever making it to your network adapter. Have fun. ---
