Steven,

All went as you outlined except that UPE.1 does not exist on the cd. There is a UPE.2 so I used it instead.

logon /v:local did start the Requester (it would never run before) and I got a "logged on" return from my use of USERID and PASSWORD. "Ken's OS/2 machine" does now appear as a box on the netword at the XP host of the lan.

So now I guess I just look up my instructions on how to setup and use file and print sharing and I should be home.

Thanks for your help far above and beyond anything any of us can expect from participants out there in the ether. This ends almost a year of frustration.

Ken
