If the machines are on the same subnet the router is not involved. The only way the MAC would be an issue is if the machine were talking to each other before the move (which it seems they weren't). And the reboot to change the subnet mask (assuming MS Windows) cleared out the local arp cache anyway. We are all just pissing in the wind until Mr. Blackmore comes back with more info. -- William Hooper _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
