request for technical help: internet connection sharing

[Todd Maynard]

David,

You probably need to configure NAT (Network Address Translation).  An
easy way to do it may be to use the Firestarter Firewall program.  It
has a wizard to help you configure NAT.  Firestarter is available in the
universe.

Good Luck
