Internet Connection Sharing failure

Jul 17, 2004 1 Replies

When trying to share my internet connection with a networked PC I get this



"Cannot enable shared access



Error 1068: The dependency service or group failed to start."



I've searched all the websites and nothing seems to help so wondered if it was a glitch of Norton Internet Security?

The O/S needs services to be active and working properly. The message is telling you that a dependency service that other services on the O/S needs has failed to start, and therefore, the O/S *cannot enable shared access*.

You should be able to use the System Event Viewer and find the critical error and double-click it to get more information about the issue.
