Hi,
I set up a p2p network. The pc acting as server is running W98 and the workstation is running W95. The reason for this p2p is to share a proprietary software for a mall store. Someone else started this project and was going to use direct cable connection and two Netgear FA310TX NICS. When I came in I suggested a hub for future growth. I am now using a hub and the same two cards. I made new cables and tested them. The hub has all lights, the pc have lights for connections as well. The problem is that the netwrok does not stay connected. I will be able to see both pcs and share info, but when I try to use the proprietary software it does not work and I cant get the pcs to see each other. So in other words it will work and then stop. In network configuration I have client for ms networks, the adapter, netbeui with adapter and sharing installed, in other words I think I have all necessary items in place. Has anyone had similar problems trying to network 95 and 98.
Thanks
