The problem is the TCP/IP package you are using. We never
put Win95 into production environments ( Stayed with Win3.1
until 1998 ) as we could not get it stable, but also its
'native' TCP/IP never did work.

Hopefully someone else can point you at a better TCP/IP
package that does work. I suppose switching to Win98 is out
of the question? It is more stable when networking.
