Hello again, Brian, John and others,

Sorry for this late response, but I was away for a few days and found way
over a hundred WinMac-postings.

My last posting was a bit incomplete, probably. I said I would disable
TCP/IP at the Mac side, but what I really tried to say, was that I never
installed it at all. So it had nothing to do with temporarily disabling
TCP/IP, but with not using it at all (on the Mac side).

My only experience with PC Cards is with a PowerMac 6100/DOS machine. I was
told that only one side (Mac or DOS/WIN) could have TCP/IP installed, not
both. However, I never really checked this, because we have a workable (is
this an English word, or just a Dutch-ism?) situation.

Using TCP/IP in Virtual PC along with the MacOS itself is quite easy, as
long as you use two different IP-addresses, of which only one can be
assigned through DHCP.

With regards,

Jeroen Camstra
