Okay, finally got it working (ie Connection Sharing). Unfortunately I will 

have to print out a bunch of stuff to remember how I did it and 

try to duplicate it much faster, this time I'll have the paperwork all

working after an reinstall. Then I can tell you what happens.
I think this time most of the problem had to do with domain name this, 
host that,....
