Chuck,


HURRRRRRAAAAAYYYY!!!!!!! I got it working!!!!!!

I noticed that when I tried to ping YOUNGMAN from JOHNDADDY it
resolved to 192.168.1.110.

I went to YOUNGMAN and checked his IP address /w ipconfig /all
it showed an IP of .101

I had tried static IPs and put them in the HOSTS files. Then I took them
out. Or so I thought. I'd left YOUNGMAN in the HOSTS file on JOHNDADDY
with the IP of .110.

I commented out the IP for YOUNGMAN in the HOSTS file, rebooted, and
everything was beautiful!!!!!

THANKS A MILLION!!!!! I OWE you big time!!!! If you ever get out this
way, be sure to look me up and I'll buy you several beers - maybe even a
stake dinner!!!!!

John,

Alright! A Hosts file redirect - never thought of that one.

I have family in Virginia - mostly Richmond, so I travel there occasionally.
Maybe I'll see you sometime.

Chuck,

We're only abou 1 1/2 hr south of Richmond. Right off of 64. So if you come
east during the summer and head down to the VA Beach beach, we're only
about 5 min. off the interstate.

I'd love to shake you hand. I know it wasn't as simple as me just removing
the
item from the HOSTS file. I've been playing with this for several months and
had a couple of friends over to play with it. It wasn't until about 2 weeks
or
so ago that I tried the static IP because I wanted to put up an FTP server.
I buddy said that I couldn't do that if I was using DHCP. So I set the static
IPs. Maybe it was removing the ZoneAlarms instead of just turning them off.
But it was something you told me to do.

So thank again!!!!!

John
