Thanks for the new forum ... now to the post.

Had a situation recently involving a small network not being able to communicate. Had 4 machines running different OSs (NT Server 4.0SP4, Win98 original version, Win98 2ED, and Win95SP1). All use same 3COM NIC and are connected via a hub.
Why do I need NetBui to have them all communicate? W95 and NT (and W98 2ED if memory serves me right)ran fine with TCP/IP only, but with W98 original version had to have NETBUI to access it.

Any thoughts or general discussion on the matter will be appreciated ... thanks.
