While riding a dragon bareback,
          Tony cried out: Possible Network
TL>  JT> Both computers would run OS/2 Warp 3.0 Connect.  Computer 1 has both
TL>  JT> TCP/IP and IBMPEER, but Computer 2 only has IBMPEER.
TL>  JT> Is it then possible for Computer 2 to connect to Computer 1 (via the
TL>  JT> LAN), start a PPP session on Com2, and then view web pages using Web
TL>  JT> Explorer on Computer 2?
TL>
TL> You need to add 2 things:  Firstly, install TCP/IP on the second PC.
Is it better, then, to simply install TCP/IP on both computers, and leave out 
the IBMPEER network?  Or should both be installed.  I would also like to do 
work on my machine from mom's from time to time.
TL> You need this to access the Internet at all.  Secondly, unless you have
TL> a range of reserved IP addresses, you'll need to install InJoy (and
TL> register it) on the machine that dials the Internet, to allow the second
TL> PC to access the Net, by means of a technique known as IP masquerading.
Ok, so do I need to set up both machines with a default IP address ... like 
255.255.255.1 and 255.255.255.2, and just have each one routed to the dynamic 
address I get when In-Joy would connect to my provider.
(As you can probably tell, I know absolutely nothing about networking outside 
of what I've read here. )
TL>  JT> Also, is it possible to boot IBMPEER without the LOGIN screen coming
TL>  JT> up? Just curious, in case of power failures.   I wouldn't require
TL>  JT> separate login for each member of the family, as on my machine
TL>  JT> (Computer 1), I would only share those dirves/directories that I
TL>  JT> choose to share.
TL>
TL> I believe this is possible with a NET LOGON command in the startup
TL> sequence somewhere.
Hmm ... just checked and I can't find a LOGON command for the NET command. ;(
