ML: "Definitely not XP Home."
The WinXP in this exercise is the Pro version, not Home. So networking
is supposed to be a bit less restrictive. WinXP does have a network
bridging service that can be set up with a networking wizard. But given
that the operative word is "bridge" I expect this wizard expects all
hosts to be on the same network. I would prefer to route rather than
bridge and I am not aware of any licencing limitation in WinXP Pro that
would prohibit that.
