But be carefull with W95 installations. I've ran into probs, when installing Networking for the first time on a W95 PC. I've selected only MS-Networking, TCP/IP and a Card driver, and no connection could be made. Then I've installed NetBEUI, rebooted the machine and deinstalled NetBEUI again. Then it worked. I think, that some files were copied to the machine when I've installed NetBEUI, and W94 NetBIOS over TCP/IP seemed to need these files. I can repeat this with every new workstation which I install, so I think, that this is not a single error.
