A silly little thing

Steve -
Swing by my office and I'll help you out.  I'm out of the office until 
Friday at a security conference but I'd be glad to answer any questions 
you have.

Until then, check out:

For the time being I am just trying to hook up 2 of them.  A Mac dual G4 and a WIN 98 machine.  I have set the WIN 98 up with the address of 10.1.1.2 and the Mac up with 10.1.1.4

I set the Proxy server address to 10.1.1.1  so I'm not sure if thats the prob or not.  I can ping both ways from the WIN 98 to Cal and Cal to WIN 98.  I can also ping the Mac from the Cal to the Mac, but the Mac does not currently have Mac Ping on it yet.
