ICS/Installing Shared Printer

Okay so i have two questions.

A- How do i enable ICS? I have a wireless card (going to my router) and a
wired card, which i would like another PC to be connected to using a
crossover that could go online using a shared internet connection from this
PC, Running SuSe 10.

The other thing is, i have a Windows XP PC sharing a printer over my
network, How do i go about installing that on here? (the Suse 10 PC)

You need to look at SuSEfirewall. There's a YaST module to configure it.
You need to enable masquerading (aka NAT).

In YaST try the printer module

What Mark says about the firewall and you will also need to look into
samba for the printer sharing.
