ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/bussys/Clients/WFW/TCP32B.EXE You need two things: The 32 bit TCP stack (TCP32B.EXE); and the 32 bit support for Windows (which has been called all sorts of things. The copy I'm using at present comes in a file called OLE32S13.EXE) I'm afraid I cannot remember which directory this is in, and the layout of MS's ftp site makes no sense to me so I can't even guess :-( Also, they call the files silly names (the 32 bit stuff was called something like PW1118.EXE at one point). > And of course question number 2: > Does anyone have any quick warnings that will save me some trouble, that > they can let me know about? First set up the 32-bit stuff (run the self-extracting archive, then run the setup that gets created), then add the TCP stack (run the self-extract, then use ``Network Setup'' to add a protocol). I find that samba performance is better if I remove the other protocols, since I run no non-TCP stuff on the network, browsing works much faster if it isn't trying to use anything other than TCP. I think the samba docs. have more info on setting WfWg up as well. Hope that helps. Cheers, Phil. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
