In Xp start the wizzard, at the end it will ask you if you would like to
make a disc to configure other computers, make the disc and run it in the
2000 machine, that will set it up for you and save you having to do it
manually.
If you want to do it manually, have you got file and printer sharing
installed? You can check in the properties of your network connection. On
the Xp machine you will also have to enable your internet connection to be
shared. The DNS servers will be the ISP DNS servers, your gaetway will be
the IP of the XP machine.
