I have one machine running win95, and one running wfw3.11.  Both have
IPX/SPX network with netbios support running as default protocol.
The win95 machine has a cd-rom, the wfw machine does not.  war2 was 
installed to the win 95 machine from the cd-rom.  It was also installed
to the wfw machine with the cd-rom mounted as a remote drive.  When
the win95 machine creates a multi-player game, the wfw machine can join
and each machine can send messages to the other, but the start button
on the win95 machine is greyed out.  The wfw machine can click on a
box at the far left, but this toggles an X in the box on both machines.
What do I need to do to get the "Start" button active on the Win95
machine?
Please e-mail any posted replies to jcol...@fishnet.net.
Thanks much,
Justin
