Internet Connection Sharing

This is a discussion about Internet Connection Sharing in the Windows Hardware category; I have a cable modem on my Win2k box. I would like to share the connection, but when I click on the connection in my network properties, there is no sharing tab. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks in advance, Keith.

Do you actually have two network adapters in your machine?
 
I'm sharing quite well. Cable modem goes to card 1, card 2 goes to the hub, and the other machines also go to the hub. Right-clicked on Card 1 in the network connections list, and looked at properties. Sharing tab was available, and I enabled the connection.
 
This option was NOT available until I added the second card.
