Both work fine, but if I've been running one, I need to reboot the PC/node before logging onto the other. Apparently both networks create their own address in the 3-COM network interface card's register. Has anyone created a program that can clear these registers and reset them to their defaults from a DOS prompt, without having to reboot the PCs? If so, how could I get a copy? Many thanks. David J.
