Hello, David, a nice day to you. 

 DD> It depends on the network OS at each machine. Until they all run the
 DD> same thing, they won't communicate with each other. That thing may be
 DD> TCP/IP, or netbui, or IPX....

        I was mentioning the use of a DCC here. If no other protocol is
        initialized, Netbeui is required. I have no fondation to this
        ascertainement other than mine only worked on DCC when it was
        selected.

 DD> I have no netbui protocol running on my LAN here - all machines
 DD> communicate with each other quite happily.

        I will go along with you. A LAN is a little bit more like a
        network than a DCC connection, methinks. A DCC is more like a
        strickly DOS operation of old days.
