While I can access the net via IE and Opera. they can find the port or whatever and get out to it. I notice that some things cannot do the same. In this case LimeWire cannot . It says it is connecting to the network and goes thru the eye candy motion but does not go anywhere. I have uninstallled it completely, wiped registry entries of it, and then redownloaded a newer version of it and installed it and it is still stuck in never never land.
I am thinking because this being a former data server, it is part of a group of computers and maybe this one is looking for another computer and not the internet directly per se.

I note that when I initially fire the computer up from cold boot in the initial DOS boot, I see F 12 NETWORKING instead of F10 so I am guessing the change has got to be back there. I am unfamiliar with that so some guidance would be appreciated.

It is a P11 Azura machine. Data server 1 92.1 68.2.1 36:confused::confused::confused:
