About to set up a home network, main machine is XP with dial up.

I'll be using the network wizard on this pc - then insert xp disc in
additonal pc's and 'run additional tasks'

question is - does the main pc need to be connected to the net to allow
access for other 2 pc's running 98 ?

Or will the 98 machines be able to control and open the dial up connection
across the network ?

Secondly if i created a floppy set up disc after running the network wizard
on main (XP) pc would this be better to use than the XP disc ? I was
wondering if the floppy would contain specific info on my network
configuration.


thanks
Brian

You can set the xp box to automatically dail up should the 98 machines
require Internet access. Hanging up the phone line after you finish
can be done using the free remote disconnection utility available from
