[MLB-WIRELESS] limiting access..

[Andrew Dean]

IP Forwarding

If you are looking to use your Windows XP box as a router, one of the first
things you will need to do is enable IP forwarding. Previously, NT and 2000
provided a checkbox in your network settings GUI to easily turn routing on,
but with XP it's no longer an easy-to-toggle checkbox. But, given the
following registry edit, you'll be on your way to routing packets from one
network to another. Set this key to one to enable routing, or zero to
disable (disabled is the default):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\IPEnab
leRouter

thats for windows XP, all windows have a key for it hidden somewhere....
