I'm having trouble getting a guest computer hooked up to FM Pro 3 on
a Win 95 peer-to-peer network, using the built in networking software.
The host copy of FM Pro opens fine as a multiuser copy. However, guest
machines don't show any hosts in the Host box, and trying to open the
file directly yields the "single user or host not found" error.
Does the host/guest system even work on peer-to-peer networks?
The protocol for both the network and each copy of FM Pro 3 is IPX,
again the built in Microsoft version. However, the Win 95 network was
originally NetBeui, and that protocol is still present in the Network
Control Panel. Do I need to remove it? Each version of FileMaker shows
that IPX loads properly, on the startup screen.
Thanks...
