If you need to connect to another machine's resources (drives, or directories) use NETBIOS over TCP/IP. GenMac works better with that protocol then the straight NETBIOS. As Carl said it is best to start with just TCP/IP, which is the protocol used to connect to the internet. Also make sure HELPERW.EXE is at the top of your config.sys file. >> Good luck, > > That I will need a lot of.
