Since all of the header info from the original message has been clipped, I
don't know where to send the cc for this. Hopefully s/he is still
following this thread.
The original poster needs to check the type of NIC which is installed in
the computers. Many LANtastic networks utilized a proprietary NIC which
is NOT compatible with Windows at all.
If NodeRunners (or something like that) are installed then they must be
replaced with standard Ethernet NICs.
