I have Windows 2000 server installed. PIII, 128MB RAM. I have enabled internet connection sharing. 1. When windows starts it gives following errors:
he Internet Connection Sharing service depends on the Remote Access Connection Manager service which failed to start because of the following error:
The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it.

2. The radmm service failed to start due to the following error:
The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.

3. Timeout (30000 milliseconds) waiting for the radmm service to connect.

What is the problem
how to solve it..

First a couple of questions. What method are you using for your internet connection? [dial up? DSL/Cable connection?] How did you configure ICS? Dial up? VPN? LAN{TCP/IP}?.

Since the event viewer is stating RRAS service isn't starting, I'll assume it hasn't been configured. Open admin tools from the control panel, click on RRAS, click on your server in the left pane. A Wizard will start up to walk you through setting up RRAS service. If your using a DSL/Cable connection, you can run the ipconfig utility at the command prompt as well as the ping utility. If your connection is DSL/Cable, try pinging your ISP IP address or their DNS servers and see if you get a response back.

It's possible that the NIC TCP/IP bindings are failing on the NIC your using for external connections. Check other event viewer information to see if this happens.
