Using Internet Connection Sharing with User Profiles
This article was previously published under Q229842
This article describes how Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) works with user profiles in Windows.
If you use user profiles in Windows, all of the Internet connections and passwords that you use with ICS need to be available in every user profile.
ICS can connect to the Internet only using cached passwords that are available in the current user profile.
For example, if User1 and User2 both have user profiles on the ICS host computer and User1's profile contains the Dial-Up Networking connection and the cached password for User1 only, then when you connect using the User2 user profile the ICS host computer cannot gain access to the Internet.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition
- Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition
- Microsoft Windows 98 Standard Edition
- Microsoft Windows 95

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
