Have 3 cpu's and modems set up "exactly" the same way. 2 of the 3 connect properly. However on one cpu when I try to connect to my server I get this every time. I've changed modems, rechecked configuration over and over to be the same. Running Win 98SE. Any suggestions?

Connected to remote computer.
Verifying user name and password...
Failed to connect to remote computer.
Unable to establish a connection.

Thanks.

Are all the computers running Windows 98SE?
 
Try swapping hard drives from good box to bad box and vice versa. See if problem moves. If it does, must be software. If it doesn't, check CMOS setup for differences.
If the modems are winmodems, check for driver versions. Check modems for any flash updates available.
 
Running Windows 98SE. Will try the HD swap. Thanks
