Why not try Dual boot-up.
To do this you would need 2 hard drives for it to have run well, not partition C:\ drive as this would be unstable.
The best way to do is to have W98 installed and then install W2000 on to spare drive. (alway made a system disk before doing).

Can u be more specific. Do u mean to say that you need to share the internet access in a single system for all the the user accounts or do u have more than one system that u need to share the internet access.

Thanks

1. Create users in Windows 2000 professional with same password.
2. While logged on Administrator, create the dialup connection.

3. Crearte a shortcut of the Dialup connection on desktop. Copy that shortcut and paste it into C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop\

4. Now log on as individual users and save the username& password...

This is the same case with Win98 also. Create users and copy the shortcut of dialup into the users profile directory (preferably in the desktop.)

All the best.

When you're configuring the connection, you should come to the open to Create Connection for either "Only Myself" or "All Users". Hope this helps!!
