    Hi folks,

    I tried the forumsearch but I couldn't find help. I have W2k in Parallels with Host Network an Shared Inet. Without Firewall its no Problem! When I turn on OS X Firewall no Internet Access in W2k is possible. When activating "Personal Web Sharing" in OSX I can use IE in W2k and get access to Websites. But my problem is Outlook! How do I configure OS X Firewall for use with Outlook and Exchange in W2k?

    Thanks for your help Robert

    If it is the same for XP, then you need to ensure that the OS X has Personal Web Sharing Service enabled. This is at Sharing using the services tab.
