Hi Don,

Ok, I'll only shout in lower case......;-)

There are 3 main areas to check -
1. Use NETBIOS or NETBEUI as the protocol on ALL machines, NETBIOS over
TCP/IP is only needed if you are connecting 2 LANS together via a WAN
connection, and then things get interesting........;-) Get the one LAN going
first.
2. Ensure the WORKGROUP name on the WFWG machines is the same as the LOCAL
DOMAIN name on the OS/2 machine.
3. Make sure the MACHINE NAME is unique for each machine in the same
WORKGROUP/DOMAIN.
Lets see how that goes........pk.
