Len, I was checking out my settings for the Host.
on the general tab, I don't have an IP address in the TCP/IP Address setting. I am assuming there should be one there. How do I put an IP Address in there? I am using a firewall. Should I use the IP address of the card? (my internal ip) or an external ip? Is there a way I can use a wild card in there to use all ips?
