Closing dial-up connection using ICS

[Gordon]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics,microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

Help on ICS tells me that the Internet connection using ICS may be
initialised AND CLOSED by the machine which does not have the direct
connection to the internet. I have NEVER found any way of doing this.
Can anyone point me in that direction? Thanks

Thanks very much for that! I wish I'd seen this two years ago!

If the other machine runs Windows 98/Me/XP, run XP's Network Setup
Wizard on the other machine to install software that monitors and
controls the ICS host's Internet connection. I've written some web
pages with details:

XP ICS - Client Setup Using the Network Setup Wizard
http://www.practicallynetworked.com/sharing/xp_ics/clientwiz.htm

XP ICS - Internet Gateway
http://www.practicallynetworked.com/sharing/xp_ics/internetgateway.htm

Otherwise, use Twiga's "Remote Disconnection Utility", as Ron
suggested.

Many thanks for the information - I'll give it a try.
