Hi Brian,

Thanks for the quick response (it's late where you live,
isn't it? :-)

We'll try that tomorrow (the test equipment is 65 miles away
and my testing buddy has gone home :).

But the curious thing(s) is that this *same* setup, with no
changes on the FreeBSD end, works as-is with Win98 (with the
same Windows settings).
Also, did you see the part in the trace where we asked for
the specific IP address and FreeBSD did ack that configuration?

If it's just a server setup problem, that's fine, we'll change
it.  But I'm just curious as to what's going on...

BTW, just out of curiousity, why does FreeBSD reject the
identification packets?  Does it really not understand them?

Thanks,
Gary
