Ahhh! We get to your real question. Gonna need some more information. How is
your network configured? Are you using Network Address Translation? What IP
addresses are you using? The more info you provide the better an answer
you'll get. This group doesn't mind questions so long as you have made some
effort on your own to read the FAQ and check the archives. Which it appears
you have to some extent.
Side note to everyone. Yes, I will get that documentation I promised out to
the group. I was sick this past weekend and didn't work on it. Humble
apologies.

Subject: RE: Service packs?
Because I have the same symptoms on my Win98 machine and that except from
the
FAQ's was the closest thing I could find that addressed my problem.
We use the machine as a remote games server with VNC.
