Well, if I use IPX wrapper I'm no longer using standard IPX networking, I am tunneling via UDP. The Windows 98 client understandably can't find an IPX network because strictly speaking there isn't one. This is why you have to use IPX wrapper under Windows XP even though XP has native IPX support. There is really only a problem when Windows 7 is introduced. A better workaround would be an open source IPX/SPX implementation that works on all versions of Windows up to 8. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
