Yes, yes, yes, the ports look like regular COMports.

IIRC you need a networking protocol IPX/SPX ( normally for Novell ) to be installed for DCC to work. See, even though DCC is a serial/parallel file transfer, it uses Dial-Up Adapter and IPX/SPX to talk on, not NetBEUI or TCP/IP like you would think. Get Dial-Up Adapter installed, and bind IPX/SPX to it, at a minimum, and let us know if THAT works... ************************************************************** 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.
