Will do, but it is Cat5 wired. Had a similar one with XP to XP sometime ago, the secondary sharer would not work so we resorted to a cable router. However this particular setup WILL NOT share the printer. We have it sort of going, send a print jab and it eventually prints after at least 15 -25 minutes. We have had 3 so called network experts try, most failed. -- Keith Antoine (GANDALF) aka 'SKIPPY' 18 Arkana St, The Gap, Queensland 4061, Australia:: PH:61733002161 Practising Geriatric, Retired Electronics Engineer, Knowall, Brain in storage _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
