Virtual PC : Internet Connection Sharing

D

My Specs
3.4 ghz dual core
onboard lan.

Windows XP SP2 as host and virtual PC.
(Microsoft Virtual PC)

I need to share internet connection...
i got a dial up like thing which works over a LAN... its called Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE)...

if internet connection sharing is not possible in this situation, is there any software which can allow me to run a application that requires internet on my virtual pc?

i have tried most of the things....

i can see the host compute in the virtual one...
can ping the host from the virtual one...
but cant share internet...

I guess i wont get help here

If u have any tips / suggestions plzz plzzz plzzz post...

I tried that...
Network is working perfectly...
Only prob is i cant share internet...

When i try to connectd directly from the virtual pc i got an error that the username is not valid on the domain (i think its security of some type that dosnt allow someone to use my account from other pc)

I can also do with something like setting up proxy server on the host.
but the prob is how do i use software that do not support proxy...
i had seen a software that forces a software to use a proxy, but unfortunately i dont remember its name as i had used it approx 1 year ago.

as u now how to network 2 PCs so just share the dataone connection (PPPoE) of the Host system then accessed the shared connection from the Virtual PC !!!

yea that what i tried... but its not working...
Remind you again... i got xp sp 2 on both of them

Heres what i did...
Set host ip to 192.168.0.1
set subnet to 255.255.255.0
gateway to 192.168.0.1 (am i doing some mistakes here?)

virtual pc.
set ip to 192.168.0.2
gateway and DNS to 192.168.0.1
(i also tried using automatic configuration, but didnt help)

..... i have already tried that

.....

Is it possible to set up a proxy server on the host and use that to connect application from the virtual pc...

i also need to use application that do not support proxy be default...

I had seen a software that enables 'application that do not support proxy be default...' to connect to a proxy server. but i dont remember its name...

if any one of you have already used it please tell me its name.
