[Guest_imported]

i have a 3 two win98 and 1 win95 computer LAN we are useing the NetBEUI protcol. That works fine for transfering files (we can see eachother in network neighbor hood) we all also have TCP/IP protocol installed. But the win95 computer is not working with it. ie when i delete NetBUI the two win98 computers still work over network (transfering files and games) but the win95 computer doenst.
Any help or sugestions would be very helpful

check the exact tcpip settings of all 3 and you will find a difference with the problem PC.

Recommend you use 192.168.0.x addresses using 1 then 2 then 3 for the x for each PC. Subnet mask 255.255.255.0 for each.

This should get you working.

Check the Win95 winsock version your using. I use Version 2 and have no problems connecting to any other windows/unix systems via TCP/IP. The update is freely available on the net. I downloaded mine from:

http://download.microsoft.com/download/win95upg/winsock/1/W9X/EN-US/Wsockupd.exe

This should get you going....
