Hi
From the OS X help:
1. Open System Preferences, click Sharing, and then click Internet.
2. Choose a network port from the "Share your connection from" pop-up menu.
3. Select "Built-in Ethernet" or AirPort depending on which computers will share your Internet connection.
In order to share your Internet connection and allow computers connected to your Internet connection to browse the web, you also need to turn on Personal Web Sharing on the Services pane of Sharing preferences.

Hi Bobw:
I have done exactly as you say and that works perfectly well with two macs
both with an airport card and OSX.
I want an OSX mac to share my Internet connection with a OS9 mac, the OS9 has not a wireless card, so I think I need to connect them both with an ethernet cable, if that is right, does the cable has to be a cross over cable?
Thanks again.

Hola Bobw:
That article does showed me step by step how to do what I wanted to, I followed
to the dot and I managed to make my OSX Mac Finder crashed, maybe I am doing something wrong. After two crashes I am not sure if I want to try again.
But I wanted to thank you for you efficient help.
! Muchas gracias !
