Hi All,
Due to all the help and interest I'll come back to the list.
Thanks Richard for the tip on IPX and NETBIOS.  I have never seen the =
other computers in Network Neighborhood and now I do.  IPX was already =
installed but not netbios.  I encountered a missing file nwnblink.vxd as =
I selected the netbios on the 98 machine.  I'll have to locate this =
file.
Also thanks to Rob and Karl for tips.
Results are still no connection.  I'll summarize for all interested.  (2 =
columns)
98 Machine  IP 169.254.144.195                          95 machine  IP =

   get dial up connection window and close it
                                                                         =
   get connect failed

                                                                         =
   get dial up window then connect failed
I also have set subnet mask of 255.1.2.3 on 95 machine and 255.3.2.1 on =
98 machine.
I think the problem is in the dial up connection always taking over any =
attempt to connect.
