Hi crash testers this is I hope a simple problem but one that has eluded me for days I have 3 machines on my network 1: mandrake 8.0 that i have been using as a router and workstation 2: win98 (1st addition) machine 3: compaq laptop mdk8.0
recently i have done a clean install on the No1 machine and now the win 98 machine refuses to share the internet connection ,it seems as though it doesn't want to talk to the MDK. I have gone through the internet connection sharing wizard in mdk ,(this has worked flawlessly on other occasions) using etherape i can see some stuff going on between win98 & workgroup so I can rule out a hardware problem. IE gets as far as "detecting proxy settings" and then gives me the old cannot find server page . the laptop is surfing fine ,picking up an ip address but this winblows machine jst doesn't want to play . this has me stumped i have done every thing the same as I did last install the only new thing is the lappy but surely this couldn't be stuffing things up . any suggestions would be much appreciated . regs jason
