Very Computer

I was trying to network my mandrake 9 system. I went to Mandrake Control
Center. Clicked on "Network and Internet" then on "Connection Sharing" and
configured connection sharing. Now I can't get online when I boot up. I have
to go back to "Connection Sharing" disable it, Then go to "Connection" and run
the Wizard (which changes it to dhcp) and then I can connect. If someone can
tell me how to disable "Network Sharing" at boot that will be good enough.
Thanks, Rob

You are running "connection sharing" on wrong adapter (NIC) - it should be
on internal network adapter...
