Wow - you have alot of questions eh? Have you enabled ICS in XP?
i can ca ping my windows_xp from knoppix and can ping my windows_xp from my knoppix
Good your network is working. Internet connection sharing in XP is very limited and is set to DHCP by default (I think) so your linux box needs to 'broadcast' for an IP address. When you installed it did you enable DHCP?

If you selected 'YES'at the DHCP question when you installed Knoppix then DHCP is already running.
Since you can ping from one machine to the other that means your network is functioning fine.
You will be looking for the dhcpd That is DHCP daemon.
Look for the /etc/dhcpd.config file.
You can always do this to:
man dhcp
I would suggest studying networking.
Personally I think it's much easier to share the internet with a Linux machine. Here's how:

Here are some excellent 'how-to's' at LDP-Linux Documentation Project.
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX/index.html
As for sharing files you will need to look into Samba here:
www.samba.org It should already be installed. You may or may not have elected to start it on boot. And of course you can always do this:
man samba

When you install Knoppix to a hard drive it becomes Debian. Several things are different. If you want to check out Debian (and you really should if you have it installed) go here:
www.debian.org

After the hd install the KNOPPIX KDE menu entries are removed, the programs are still there but the entries in the menus are deleted.
Are you still wanting to use your winXP machine as your internet gateway? If so, have you set up "Internet Connection Sharing" on your winXP machine?
You'll need to do that first, then you will need to setup knoppix to use dhcp for its IP address, etc. To use netcardconfig you can do it from a terminal window, ie: konsole, xterm, etc., open the terminal window, and then use the su command to become root, at the command prompt type:
su (then the enter key)
then give the root password and press enter
then at the prompt type: netcardconfig and then <enter> key now select dhcp for your network configuration.
