Can I assume that the darkforce.com mc is linux, with the others being windoze? I found that when I entered a second Ip address, my linux box wanted to take it over - i.e. appeared as the IP and name of the windoze box in terminal!!! My linux mc is 192.168.0.10, and the main windoze one I want to connect to is 192.168.0.1. I'll try to do a similar config in my hosts file and see what happens. Heather
