Problem setting interet connection sharing in W2K3 SP1

Hi,

I have tow compuers in my home network.

Compuer 1 has windows server 2003 with SP1 and work as primary domain
controler. Has one network card plugged into a switch and connect to the
internet via ADSL trought one USB cable modem.

Computer 2 has windows xp professional with SP2 and work as workstation. Has
one network card plugged into the same switch.

Before installing the SP1 in the windows 2003 server, both computer connect
to the internet due to i shared the internet connection, but after installing
the SP1 theinternet connection couln't be shared due to the SP1 activate the
windows firewall. So, in this momment i have the xp workstation without
internet connection.

What i have to do to share again the internet connection in order to both
computer can access internet or after the SP1 what are the steps i need to do
in order to get the same scenarion before SP1?

Thanks in advance.

If the router can protect the LAN, you may want to disable the windows firewall. If you do want to use windows server as a firewall enabled, you may add another NIC to enable NAT. this page may help,
