I am having a rather strange problem.... i have set up win2k to act as a router between 2 servers on different ip's & subnets. the router works fine & both sides can ping the router. my problem is that when i use dailup networking i can not access my isp even to download mai. i cannot access the internet either... is there something i am doing wrong ???
