Subject Re: FireBird can work with NetBeui ?
Author enricorav
Thank to all,
but at now i haven't solved my problem.

I have some Win98 PC, all the PC have NetBeui installed and it work
fine for shared drives and printers.
In one of this Win98 PC i have installed FireBird.
FireBird work fine on the Server but i can't make a connection to it
from all the other Win98 Client PC.

For test purpose, i have installed TCP/IP on the Win98 FireBird
Server and another Win98 Client and using TCP/IP protocol the
connection are established without any problem.

Then i think there are some problem with FireBird and NetBeui
protocol on Win98, this is right ? I must re-configure all the PC in
the network with TCP/IP ?

Best regards,
Enrico Raviglione.
