SBS 2K3 (BT Broadband) USB Connection Problem

I'm a developer and for some time I had the following set
up as my test rig at home:

SBS 2K3 with two NICs
One NIC connected to a Linksys Router and DSL
One NIC for the client
SBS is running DNS and DHCP

Windows XP Pro Client

-- This all worked fine.

I have recently moved to the UK and have got an ADSL
modem which connects to my server via the USB port and
is configured as a PPP connection.

My server connects perfectly well to the internet and my
client connects perfectly well to the server but for some
reason my client is unable to connect to the internet. I
can't resolve any pages and I can't ping any internet
locations.

Can someone explain to me or point me towards resources
showing how to make this connection work ?

Many thanks in advance for any replies.

Is the client set to use the server's DNS server?

It sounds like your previous configuration used the Linksys router to
provide NAT to share the Internet connection - but you are no longer using
this device?

If this is the case, then you will need to configure RRAS in Administrative
Tools to enable NAT sharing on the interface connected to your ADSL modem.
If you have not previously configured RRAS, a wizzard will walk you through
the process. You cannot use ICS, if you are running a DHCP Server.
