Mandi! Jens Geile In chel di` si favelave... > Basically the client cable was unplugged. In reality the client was directly connected to the server through a normal ethernet cable not a cross-over cable. Mmmh... try with cable disconnected, i think it is not the same. Probably with the cable not crossed the ethernet device 'feel' to be connected and so windows consider the interface up, trying to use it. -- dott.
