Dave,
I thought since TCP/IP was being used for the internet connection on
both PC's (with 2 different IP addresses and subnets) that I couldn't use
TCP/IP to network them together too.
I guess I need to do some more reading on what samba can do. I went out
and bought a book today so I'm going to give it a try. Thanks.
Trevor
