No, not as simple as that. Hosts makes no difference. I am running a dns server on my fileserver & pointing my win machine at it. It gets all other ip numbers correct both on the network & on the internet.
As entering ip Nos works I'll live with that for a while. Steve -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
