This is the configuration that is currently in place and working.(All networking and internet connection sharing features). The differences I noted: Addition of the LAN settings which didn't show in my previous Ipconfig/All DHCP enabled on the 98 machine. The 0 and 1 Ethernet adapters have switched places, with the addition of a driver for the 1 adapter. DNS server (192.168.0.1) Added for the 98 machine. I'm not sure I understand these issues any better than when I started, but as is usual for me, I make my greatest strides by maing mistakes. Thanks again to all who offered help. **************************************************************************** ********************** Microsoft(R) Windows DOS (C)Copyright Microsoft Corp 1990-2001.
