Thanks, William. I've learned. But I am trying to ping this machine through a Cisco 675 router/modem (yeah, still messing with this thing) from a remote server, so the problem is yet to be solved. I know that NAT can be done through the router/modem by entering commands involving port numbers. Other than that,... ? Art
