Is Peer running? The requester needs to be started on all machines connected to the network in order for them to be seen by each other. Are both systems using the same workgroup (IBMPEERS or what ever is the default now should be changed to something of your choice; otherwise anyone with that domain/workgroup can potentialy access your systems). Have you set up shares and permissions. My main machine has no shares or permissions and cannot be seen by the other two systems. However it can see the other two, and those two can see each other. I do remember having to reinstall peer on my 386 in order for my main machine to see it. If you're using Warp or Ecs, there's Selective Install For Networking. There you can re/install Peer (file and print sharing). Also try the different ports on the 1300. Unlikely but you may find a combination different to mine that works for you. You should not need to setup routing information at all. The IP of the 1300 is placed automatically where it needs to be (at least for me it did) I didn't bother with Hostnames either. Others may have better advice for you with that. I hope some this helps.

Hi all. Steady progress with the new laptop. We began by shutting off the more contentioous areas in the BIOS - Infra Red, modem, Serial port (not required). Next stage: gradually opening up various bits. Re: infra-red. Does anyone know where I should look for software, if required, to receive and save files passed over an infra-red link eg. a mobile phone - putting not too-fine a point on it ?

The two machines used to be connected to each other and would share files and printers quite happily, with a 2nd NIC in the tower to connect to the ADSL router. Then I had the idea to connect each to the router so that with the resume/sleep function on the laptop I could get quicker internet access, without having to boot the tower each time. So all the domains and permissions are in place, but I suspect it is a tcpip or similar issue that I will need to sort out Peter R ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
