OK better clarify a few points before someone again reserves the right to abuse me ;-) >I'm using WinRoute Lite 3.04 (its an old version, it'll be flying around on a >software archive somewhere or I can send you a >copy, its completely freeware) OK those of you going to Winroute's site are probably thinking "Umm ... isn't it shareware?" ... versions of Winroute 3.xx and below had a 'Lite' version which WAS proper freeware. They changed that in 4.xx and above so the 'Lite' version now expires in 30 days. As far as I know however they haven't revoked the freeware licence on 3.xx or below (and I did enter my email address when I downloaded it and I've not recieved anything to that effect) so to my knowledge its kosher ;-) >I know it sounds funny but YES this computer IS accessing the full Internet (IRC/web >browsing/telnet/ping/tracert) through the >parallel port Again, those of you visiting the Winroute site may be thinking "Umm ... thats a feature of Winroute". That feature only actually came about at version 4.xx and after - the parallel port TCP/IP sharing I'm talking about is built into Windows 2000 and somehow Windows 95 knows how to talk to it. Certainly its not officially possible - even Microsoft's support site says its impossible but somehow it works (and its independant of the NAT/sharing, remember my 2k box doesn't have any sharing plus the Libretto can see all other computers on my local network that have IP addresses). For some strange reason though I can't actually use Microsoft File and Print sharing between my Libretto and my 2k box (the 2 computers either side of the parallel cable). I'm still trying to figure out why (I'm not trying TOO hard though, I found that file transfers chug the processor on my workstation like crazy ... I'm working on seeing if I can get a null modem connection to the NT server and treating that as a second RAS line ...) Anyways ... I'm still trying to figure out why I write so much per post ... if someone ever finds out do tell me ... hehe - Raymond ************************************************************** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ -------TO UNSUBSCRIBE------- Reply to any of the list messages.
