Hmm, Douwe could be right. I never used any pc without network-card... But when you can connect to your ISP via TCP/IP it must work IMHO. Juergen --On Dienstag, 16. Juli 2002 15:41 +0200 douwe@oberon.nl wrote:
Hi,
When I start the START.BAT, my computer starts a dial-in to my internetprovider! It seems this occurs when START.BAT is trying to retrieve my hostname. When START.BAT is finished, I type in... I remember something that the TCP subsystem on Win98 isn't loaded until you have an active device, that is, you can't run any tcp servers unless you have a network card or a dialed in modem. What if you connect first to your ISP and then run START.BAT? What do you see in the dos box? Do you have a network card laying around, if so try that. Douwe
