Hi
I have read someplace that higher numbers are for workstations
and smaller number are for specialized functions

Yes, yesterday I managed to ping to 192.168.0.1 with 100% success
but failed to ping to 127.0.0.1 and
also failed to ping to localhost
using either a packet driver or a packet to ODI shim.
As a final test I installed Trumpet Winsock 5c2 as a substitute
to Microsoft Winsock in network client W95 OSR2.
Result is same as with DOS packet drivers, it will ping to server
but will not be able to open any internet application.
This points me to: Only Windows 9x Microsoft TCP/IP protocol
is allowed as a client for Internet Connection Sharing using
W98SE or higher servers. I am not positive but looks like another
example of Microsoft gridlock on everything
