Give the Win95 computers IP numbers. Use your FreeBSD PC as name server. > Of course, it would be nice to have some file shares on > the FreeBSD machine which could be accessed from Win95 machine. Install Samba. The original FreeBSD installation asks if you want it. You can install it later as a "package". It works. Your Win95 computers can access files on FreeBSD. Use the "Client for Microsoft Networks". Set the WINS server manually. I use this quit a bit. Let me know if you have trouble. > But it is more of a NFS question. For Win95?

Maybe if you assign a different IP number to the 9600 interface and use that as your favorite MX?
