Hi -
I don't have Airport but do have an ethernet hub and bluetooth adapters.
I've tried to use NetShareX from Sustworks but failed! Has anyone had any luck or can think of any soloution with the following specs.

PowerBook 667 and a PowerMac 466, both with 10.2.1 and ethernet and bluetooth adapters installed.

cheers

In 10.2, just go to System Preferences -> Sharing, and click on the Internet Sharing tab.

You can always setup internet sharing. there is an excellent tool for the setup that can be found on versiontracker.com

it is called Airport Software Base Station Tutorial, check it out here: http://www.versiontracker.com/morei...id=13335&db=mac

Works smooth nice fast and is free...

Tooki - this is awesome!
After giving up on my ADSL non-supported modem in 10.2, I reverted to the internal modem dialup, one click and BINGO, I was web-sharing instantly with my other mac. This is seriously going to cut hours if not days out of networking for the future.
