I really feel stupid now: I never thought about any settings on the NT box. Yes, I can ping the nt box from the 192.168.3.0 network. The gateway on the nt box sounds like it could be the problem. I was thinking about setting the nt box with these settings: IP:192.168.2.2 MASK:255.255.0.0 GATE:192.168.3.1 Does this sound reasonable? I am not worried about the nt box having access to the internet: there is no need for that. Mike mgcon@getnet.com http://www.getnet.com/~mgcon Phoenix, AZ USA
