Since 5 weeks I have now 2 P4 computers. Old is "master" and

"slave" is connected via LAN (directly, no hub, no router) to the
master. Both having XPproSP2 loaded (of course each has a original
package). I could activate the XPpro on the slave 5 weeks ago. But
I have checked now these days the update status. No updates. I have
to register. Fine, I wnat to register. Then I reased, I could not
get via any routes to MS' update site. What must I do,to
1 to register (to get to the registering site) and
2 to get automatic updates. I have that in System checked, but
the slave cannot connect to the update site - see above.
Please some advise would help.

Registration is optional.
Activation is mandatory.

So.. do you have some sort of "Internet Connection Sharing" going on?

Can you connect to other web sites on what you call the slave?
At the bottom of the article above.. there are some links you may want to
look at..
