| 34157 | 2002-02-03 10:32:00 | I have a small home network with 1 Linux PC and two Windows PCs - Win95 & Win98. I use shared access some of the time using IP masquerading on the Linux PC. The Win98 PC works fine. The Win95 boots very slowly when you have DNS settings - seems like the lookup timeout is too long? If you boot with the Linux PC connected to the net, all is OK. A perusal of the net does not seem to reveal too much. Any ideas? |

| 34159 | 2002-02-03 23:41:00 | The Win95 is probably looking (and waiting ... and waiting) for a nameserver. It might help to have a 'hosts' file, and have it looked up first. The Linux HOWTOs about networking will help you set this up. Otherwise, start up with your Linux box connected! |
