Hello:

I need some help with a NetBEUI file sharing problem on my computers. Any help on this will be appreciated! Here's my situation:

I have 4 computers: an OS/2 machine, two XP machines and one 98 machine. The XP and OS/2 machines are all networked
together as peers, using a hardware router. The router goes to the DSL Internet modem. The OS/2 machine uses adapter #1 on
LAN0 to go to the router, the Internet and the other XP machines. The OS/2 machine also uses adapter #2 and LAN1 to go to the
98 machine. I use an Injoy firewall, which IP forwards information to/from the Internet and the 98 machine. The firewall IP forwards
through adapters 1 and 2 on the OS/2 machine.

Now, I can see and communicate with the Internet on all four machines. That's fine; no problems there. I can also file and print
share (using NetBEUI) between the OS/2 and XP machines just fine. No problems there. However, I cannot file and print share to
or from the 98 machine. I cannot see the 98 machine for file and print sharing and the 98 machine cannot see the other machines.
For example, I get error SYS0053: "The network path was not found", when I use the "net view" command on the OS/2 machine to
try and see the already defined shares on the 98 machine.

I have TCPIP and NetBEUI bound to all the adapters on all the machines. I believe that I have the same parameters for NetBEUI
on adapters 1 and 2 in my IBMLAN.INI file.

Any one have any ideas? Are there any diagnostic tools for NetBEUI, like there are for TCPIP? Thanks for your help!
