Zone Alarm Pro on server denying client access to 'Net from client laptop

If I shut down ZA on the desktop/server, all ICS works perfect! How can I get it to work from my laptop/client without turning off ZA Pro on the desktop/server? No firewalls are installed on the client, including no Zone Alarm. Excellent file sharing from host to client with ZA on. But no access from client to host with ZA on. If ZA is off, client/laptop has full access file sharing to desktop/server.

What I've tried: In "Advanced" This computer is an ICS/NAT gateway is checked, and

192.168.0.1 is the shown local address

192.168.0.1/255.255.255.0 is in the "Trusted" zone and

192.168.0.2/255.255.255.0 is in the "Trusted" zone

"Trusted Zone Security" is off with warning "Caution! Firewall is off" displayed.
